Exploring Direct Cremation: A Guide to No-Service Funeral in NSW

Amidst restrictions on attended funerals due to the global pandemic, families are rethinking traditional farewell ceremonies. The non-attended direct cremation is gaining popularity, allowing for future memorials or celebrations of life once social distancing eases. As families navigate altered funeral dynamics, this article aims to answer common questions and shed light on the advantages of a non-attended funeral.
