Funeral vs. Memorial: What’s the Difference?
Both funerals and memorials are meaningful ways to honour a loved one, but there’s a key difference:
A funeral includes the presence of the coffin.
A memorial focuses on celebrating their life, with the coffin not present.
At Oakleigh, we understand that every family is unique. That’s why we tailor our arrangements to fit what feels right for you and your loved one– creating a meaningful tribute that reflects their life and legacy.
