CATHOLIC Cemeteries & Crematoria at Rookwood are always looking for new and innovative ways to memorialise our loved ones.

With cremation increasing in popularity due to its affordability and reduced environmental impact, there is a range of options for cremation memorials that are contemporary and allow families to create a lasting and personal tribute.


Catholic Cemeteries & Crematoria, in collaboration with Everlon Bronze, created a new cremation interment cylinder at The Way of the Cross, Rookwood, that is available to all in the community.
The horticultural team worked with Everlon Bronze on laser cut designs with patterns including autumn leaves, roses and dragonflies.
“This memorialisation option is popular with customers, as it is close to a scenic waterway,” spokesperson Jo Davenport said.
“The area is planted with annual flowers that make a colourful addition to the year-round gardens. To arrange an appointment to view your options, please contact our office on 9649 6423.”
