Death Certificate of Eileen Helen BORDER nee HODGE 1947

I had cause to order the death certificate of my great-grandmother Eileen Helen BORDER nee HODGE (1900-1947, there are a few photos of her here: https://thehistoryofmatt.blogspot.com/2008/04/border-family-photos.html). The death certificate information matches that in my family tree. I would note that her husband and father survived her. Eileen was cremated, and the Eastern Suburbs Crematorium lists their location as "ashes taken". Perhaps they were interred when her husband Samuel BORDER when he died in 1963. That's probably the next certificate to check as I can't find his burial.
