Cremation or Burial?
After anatomical examination has been completed (normally a period of two years), the University will arrange a simple burial or cremation as indicated by you on your forms. With cremations we are able to offer a brief committal service in accordance with your denominational rites. The University will meet all expenses involved. Arrangements are carried out by our Funeral Director and the remains are finally placed in the grounds of the Northern Suburbs Crematorium or Macquarie Park Cemetery, unless you have specified otherwise on the Donor’s Offer Form. Donors’ Memorial A bronze plaque has been placed in Macquarie Park Cemetery and another in the main courtyard of the Anderson Stuart Building in recognition of those who have donated their bodies for medical investigation. Visitors are welcome to view both areas.
