Supporting Reservoir
Reservoir is a big-hearted, diverse community in Melbourne’s north, home to generations of Italian, Greek and Macedonian families who settled here after the war, alongside Indian, Chinese, Lebanese and Vietnamese families and many young households putting down roots. Life here gathers around the shops and cafes of Broadway and Edwardes Street, and around Edwardes Lake Park, a beloved green space first given to the local community back in 1914 where people walk, picnic and remember together. We know that a farewell in Reservoir often blends faith, culture and a strong neighbourly bond, and we take the time to understand exactly what your family needs.
From our North Melbourne chapel a short drive away, we support Reservoir families with services at our own chapel, at a local parish church, or at the cemetery or memorial park that holds meaning for you. Whatever a fitting farewell looks like for your family, we are here for you, any time of the day or night.
