FAQs
What is Probate?
A ‘Probate’ is a certificate in which you are officially recognised as the executor named in the Will by the Probate Office. It gives you the authority to ‘deal with’ the assets. The executor gets Probate by applying to the Probate Office.
What details need to be supplied to the Funeral Director?
All deaths need to be registered as per state law. The death of your loved one will by registered by Edward (Ted) Bull & Daughter Funeral Directors on your behalf. Together with the information submitted by the Doctor or Coroners Court the Victorian Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages completes the Death Certificate. The certificate is then posted directly from the Registry to the informant (the person organising and supplying the information to the funeral director).
Payment of the funeral invoice?
Edward (Ted) Bull and Daughter Funeral Directors recognise that it may not be in everyone’s financial capacity to be able to pay for a funeral up front and maintain the type of funeral they want. You shall be given an estimate of the account prior to the funeral service. Following the funeral, we shall post an account. Our terms of payment are 14 days from the date of the service. The same terms apply where an Estate is subject to Probate Application.
Who do I contact first when someone has died?
Irrespective of the place of occurrence of the death, the first point of contact should be the doctor or the General Practitioner of the deceased. It is legally important for the doctor to sign a medical cause of death. There are, however, certain circumstances where it would not be legally possible for the doctor to sign a medical cause of death. In situations like these, the involvement of the police and the coroner becomes inevitable.
Is a funeral service required?
No. There are often reasons that a funeral service is not held; it may be a request made by your loved one. A No-Service cremation or burial means a funeral is not held, there is no viewing or attendance by family and friends, and is a cremation or burial arrangement only. Regardless of the reason why it is quite acceptable not to hold a service.
What is the significance of a funeral director?
There are many things involved within a funeral ceremony – organising and coordinating the burial or cremation, fulfilling the necessary government legislative and regulatory requirements as well as making arrangements for the funeral service which include celebrant or minister, musicians, catering and the likes. A funeral director comes with the knowledge and experience to get all these tasks accomplished in a timely and effective manner.
How much does a funeral cost?
There is no definite answer to this question because of the scope of options available. There are a number of necessary inclusions and certifications required. Some of them have fixed costs.
What is the difference between a coffin and a casket?
While both the terms are used interchangeably, there are stark differences between the two. Coffins have tapered shape – they are narrow at the head, widest at the shoulders and tapered in towards the foot. They are prepared from timber-veneer, custom wood, composite board, solid timber and enviro-board and come in a wide variety of colours and finishes.
Can a funeral service be held anywhere/at any venue?
Yes, a funeral service can be held anywhere – be it a church, RSL, crematorium, cemetery, local pub, the family home or a sporting club. The choice is entirely yours.
Cremation or Burial?
You have the choice as to the cremation or burial of your loved one. Both are rooted in culture; cremation is prohibited within some relevant faiths, while in other cultures cremation is the custom. While both options offer flexibility in terms of personalisation, they do have many points of divergence. Ultimately, this decision is a matter of personal choice.
