Supporting Bacchus Marsh
Bacchus Marsh is a town with deep roots, the largest community in the Shire of Moorabool and a place where market gardens, river flats and a strong sense of history all sit side by side. Anyone who has driven in knows the famous Avenue of Honour, with its hundreds of elm trees planted along the Western Highway in memory of local servicemen. Families here gather at Maddingley Park for picnics by the rose garden, walk the trails near the Lerderderg Gorge, and worship at long-standing churches such as Holy Trinity Anglican on Gisborne Road. We understand that a farewell in a town this connected often carries generations of shared memory.
Many Bacchus Marsh families look to Maddingley General Cemetery, with its early settler headstones, when planning a burial or memorial, and we are glad to guide you through every choice without rushing you. From our Melton chapel a short drive along the highway, we can hold a service at our own venue, at a local church, or at a place that held meaning for your loved one. Whatever a farewell looks like for your family, we are here for you, any time of the day or night.
