Every life has a story to tell.

This Anzac Day, we share a story from a letter my grandfather Arthur sent home to his parents. His words, his memories, carried forward by Troy and the Chapter House family.

Lest we forget.

As funeral directors, we spent the week with Wooling Hill at the Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show and shared in many thoughtful conversations.
It reinforced just how important it is to have even a simple discussion about your wishes.

As the Melbourne International Flower & Garden Show comes to a close, we’ve taken a moment to reflect on the past few days.

The conversations have been genuine, honest, and often thought-provoking.

So many people connected with the idea of creating a place where memories live and grow.

And just as many paused. Not because they didn’t understand… but because it made things feel real.

As funeral directors, we see this every day. We sit with families at the very beginning, when decisions need to be made and emotions are raw. And when those conversations haven’t been had, that weight is carried by the people left behind.

A place matters.

At Wooling Hill, through Chapter House, we walk that entire journey with families… from the first call, to a place to return to.

🌿 RememberMe Trees
More than an idea… a place that will always be there.

Thank you to everyone who stopped, spoke with us, and shared their thoughts.

Sunday set-up at Chapter House Funerals Wooling Hill Memorial Estate.

Even on Sundays, the work continues. From carefully preparing bespoke spaces to taking in the views across the Macedon Ranges, every detail matters.

With 40 acres to work within, we can create meaningful gathering spaces almost anywhere on the estate. No two services are ever the same and no other funeral venue offers this sense of openness, flexibility, and connection to place.

And yes, even Lucy our caring Moodle puts in the hours on Sundays.

Chapter House and Wooling Hill is saddened at the loss of our care dog in training, Teddy.
Unfortunately Teddy had a tussle with a brown snake. Lucy and Teddy have comforted many families in our care. Lucy is very distressed today, however we know Lucy will be ok and continue to assist us caring for families.
Teddy will be laid to rest at The Field of Companions, Wooling Hill Memorial Estate.

Troy and Liddy. 💔

Chapter House provides the opportunity to include tree planting memorials as an integral part of the funeral service. Now, we are excited to offer this in combination with our sculpture services. These services can take place amidst the stunning gardens at Wooling Hill Memorial Estate, and you can also arrange post-service refreshments near the family memorial sculpture.
