A repatriation is when a deceased is moved interstate or overseas to be laid to rest. This is something Drysdale Funerals is experienced in. We have assisted families from all over the Sunshine Coast make appropriate final arrangements to many interstate and international destinations as well as assisting others to bring a loved one to the Sunshine Coast for final arrangements.
Why repatriate?
For a variety of reasons a family may wish to have a loved one returned to a different state or even a different country to be laid to rest. It could be so that burial can take place in a family plot or for sentimental reasons, such as returning your loved one to where they grew up.
Drysdale’s funeral directors understand that it can be very comforting for a family to know that their loved one has been laid to rest in a place that meant something to them but that organising this can seem a daunting task.
When you deal with the funeral homes that make up the Drysdale network of funeral service providers, you benefit from our connections with trusted funeral brands all over Australia and the world. Drysdale Funerals can assist with a repatriation of any kind, whether that is bringing a loved one back to the Sunshine Coast or sending them from the Sunshine Coast to another state or country, you can rest assured that we will be there for your family.
We will liaise with all relevant State and Federal Government departments, as well as the Consul-Generalate of another country.
We have successfully helped families achieve this peace of mind and we can help your family too.
