Academy Funerals
Caring For The Community
There comes a time in everyone’s life when
someone they love dies. Most people will never know when that time will be
– nor will they be fully prepared to deal with the emotional rollercoaster they
will invariably find themselves embarking upon as they deal with and come to
terms with the loss of their loved one.
At this very difficult time, grieving people will
be at an all-time emotional low and therefore very vulnerable. They may
not know what to do, who to call, or what is possible in terms of a funeral
service. It’s important that the family entrust the funeral arrangements
to a funeral director that cares about what they are going through and will not
treat them as just another number.
Academy Funerals cares about its clients
and their families in a way that many other funeral companies do not.
Directors Ashley and Katrina Bergh are available to assist
grieving families 24 hours a day, seven days a week. When the call
comes, even in the middle of the night, Ashley and Katrina will be there to
comfort and support families at this intensely emotional time when certain
decisions have to be made.
Together, the Bergh’s run Academy Funerals
and its sister company,
Polynesian Funerals – the former focusing on
quality funeral ceremonies for the mainstream Australian community, and the
latter catering for culturally – specific funeral ceremonies for all of the
different Polynesian communities.
Despite what you may have heard, funeral
ceremonies don’t necessarily have to cost a lot of money. It is quite
possible to hold a cremation or burial for well under the $8,000.00 mark that is
popularly bandied about in the media. As a wholly Queensland owned
company, Academy Funerals provides a caring, dignified and highly
appropriate funeral ceremony anywhere in South East Queensland at a very
affordable cost.
Academy Funerals also offer an embalming service, which
complies with current health requirements.
Embalming is
also a legal requirement if the deceased is to be
transported overseas.
Academy Funerals provide where required a complete “repatriation service” to return the
deceased to their home country or other part of Australia, quickly and without
fuss. This
can be in the form of a whole body or cremated
remains whichever the family require. At Academy Funerals we have at our disposal 4
internationally qualified embalmers, who work on a
contract basis. This ensures that if a
deceased person has to be transferred back to their
home country at short notice, we can handle it.
When you entrust Academy Funerals with the
funeral arrangements for your loved one, you can rest assured knowing that you
will receive exceptional service from caring, qualified directors Ashley
and Katrina Bergh. |
