Wagga Wagga Lawn Cemetery & Crematorium

Crematorium Memorials

The Wagga Wagga Lawn Cemetery & Crematorium has many gardens

and niche walls established for interment of ashes and many families

choose to have cremated remains memorialised in this manner. Ashes

may also be interred with a loved one in a lawn burial position, retained

by the family or scattered, according to the deceased wishes.

There are several memorial gardens available for cremated remains,

including single and double positions, niche walls and memorial only

positions available at the Wagga Wagga Lawn Cemetery and

Crematorium.

Each garden/niche wall has a different memorial option. This booklet

provides more information on the options available.

Memorials are not included in the cost of burial or cremation and all

memorial components must be ordered through the Cemetery office.

Staff at the Cemetery are available to assist you in choosing the right

memorial for your loved one. Memorial arrangements are by

appointment only. Please contact the Cemetery office on 02 6926 9310

to make a suitable time.

Why Memorialise?

A memorial provides an enduring memory of someone who is no longer

with us. It serves as a focal point for families and friends to reflect on the

life of their loved one.

It ensures future generations have a place to visit and remember those

that have been before them. A memorial creates a connection with

history, an important sense of belonging and identity.

PERSONALISING BRONZE PLAQUES

There are many design options available to personalize your loved one’s memorial. The following are examples of some of the design options we have

available.

MOTIFS AND EMBLEMS

The appearance of a plaque can be enhanced by the use of motifs. There are two types of motifs available, Flat Relief and BAS Relief.

FLAT RELIEF: These motifs are created by the plaque manufacturer using design software.

Examples of Flat Relief motifs

BAS RELIEF: These motifs are sculptured by the plaque manufacturer in a three dimensional shape. The surface of the motif is highlighted in bronze on

the plaque resulting in a motif with depth and perspective.

Examples of Bas Relief motifs

PLAQUE BORDERS AND COLOUR OPTIONS

The border is the design that surrounds the bronze plaque. There are two types of borders available, Raised and Sculptured.

RAISED BORDERS: These are solid borders with a choice of corner designs.

SCULPTURED BORDERS: These border designs are more elaborate and intricate and are selected to match the design or theme of the plaque.

There are also many options for background colour on bronze plaques. The background colour provides a contrast to the raised elements of the plaque,

including the inscription and motifs. The standard colour is dark brown (above left), but there is a choice of colours available, including dark blue, dark

green and maroon (as above).

For further information on design options please contact the Cemetery office.

OFFICE OF AUSTRALIAN WAR GRAVES

Office of Australian War Graves memorials can be placed in Section 3 and Section 10 at the Wagga Wagga Lawn Cemetery and in all crematorium

gardens. The memorial is provided and maintained in perpetuity by the Office of Australian War Graves for veterans of the Australian armed forces

who die in war or conflict, or eligible veterans who die after a war of conflict of causes related to their service in that war of conflict.

How to arrange the memorial?

Notify Department of Veteran’s (DVA) when the veteran passes away. If the veteran is eligible for an official commemoration, DVA will

contact the Office of Australian War Graves (OAWG)

The Office of Australian War Graves will send information and a form to the next of kin, advising of the options available –

o Memorial in a cemetery or lawn cemetery – OAWG will arrange for the placement of a standard size single bronze plaque. In the

case of a second interment the veteran’s plaque cannot be moved or changed in any way. For this reason, if the first interment

takes place in Section 3 if a second interment were to take place the OAWG memorial would need to be completely removed (with

permission) and replaced with a plaque paid for by the family. If the first interment takes place in Section 10 and an OAWG

memorial is placed in position, when the second interment takes place there is space for a second plaque of the same size to be

placed.

o Memorial in a crematorium – OAWG will arrange for the placement of the ashes in a wall niche or garden bed with a bronze plaque.

o Memorial in the Office of Australian War Graves Garden of Remembrance – A Garden of Remembrance memorial is provided as

an alternative to the lawn cemetery and crematorium options.

Complete the documentation in full and return to OAWG.

If you choose not to proceed with an OAWG memorial you may wish to have a Service Badge emblem included on the bronze plaque or granite panel.

Cemetery staff apply for permission to use the Service Badge and include this information in your memorial order.
