Hello Rhonda, You could try the Funeral Director Record indexes put out by the Genealogical Society of QLD. I think the State Library has the indexes but you would need to contact the society about the full records. They have show Frank has being buried by Alex Gows Pty Ltd. The funeral was at a church at Lutwyche then the cemetery is shown as "cremation". I assume this means he was taken to the Crematorium at Albany Creek. You could see if you can get a copy of his funeral notice which was in the Thursday Courier Mail. His next of kin was his wife at the same address and his daughter arranged the funeral. I hope this helps.

I am pretty sure Albany Creek was not operating in the 1950s. It started later 1960s-70s. There was only one crematorium at that time: Mt Thompson Crematorium at Holland Park. Kerry
