An inscription in the Book Of Remembrance is available as an alternative, or in addition to, your choice of a memorial. Each memorial entry is hand-inscribed by a skilled artist in the style of illuminated mediaeval manuscripts. The Book is of the finest parchment and leather and is mounted in its own cabinet. It is available for inspection in The Chapel at Geelong Memorial Park.
The Book will be kept by the Trust as a perpetual (for all time) memorial. The inscription is made up of a maximum of 5 lines, and typically includes the name of the deceased with dates of birth and death. A short sentiment may be included, along with a decoration such as a flower, emblem, badge or family crest. Families may obtain a personal copy of the memorial inscription as it appears in the Book of Remembrance.
Entries are accepted in memory of persons buried or cremated at locations other than Geelong.
