In Memory of a Loved One A special way to honour a loved one when they pass away is by setting up a donations in memory fund with Mission Australia. Instead of sending flowers, family and friends can make a donation in memory of their loved-one’s life.
The funeral director can organise this for you. They will contact us for a supply of special donation envelopes that will be available at the funeral. Alternatively, we can send these directly to family members. We will send a thank-you card and receipt to every person who makes a donation in memory. An acknowledgement card will be sent to the family, along with the names of the people who made a donation. If you wish to receive in memory donations when you die, it may be helpful to inform your executor or include instructions in your Will.
There are other ways that you can honour the memory of a loved one:
