In memory of a dedicated volunteer

THE Ararat Cemetery Trust has honoured the life and legacy of long-serving member Brian Collins, unveiling a new bench in his name. Mr Collins, who passed away June last year, served the Ararat Cemetery Trust for 32 years and was particularly passionate about the children’s section of the cemetery, as well as the development and upkeep of the native garden installed in the children’s ‘Angel’s Garden’.
