    Fantastic service, there was no pressure to purchase all the usual guilt-laden add-ons
    We weren’t pressured to get an overpriced coffin, we weren’t pressured to get extra flowers. They were extremely helpful, efficient and one of the most pleasant people I’ve ever had to deal with. They handled everything well and to suit our requirements.
    They deserve every bit of a 5 star rating and more.

    We have just farewelled a special young woman which was traumatic. Julie and Steve were very efficient and helpful. They handled the whole process with great care and sensitivity. People were asking who they were because they were so impressed.

    Julie,

    Thank you to you and your team yesterday. As someone that hasn’t had to do this before it was a great process from our initial phone call.

    I loved your clear communication, patience and decisiveness in what was a challenging time. I take my hat off to you supporting families at these stages of their lives.

    The service itself is one Karen would have loved so thank you. I know a lot of people work behind the scenes to make these things happen so thank you to them too.

    Once again, thank you to you and the team.

    My elderly father passed away late one night in February this year and it has taken me until now to post this review. I am so thankful to Julie for her prompt response to my early morning call, when others were slow or failed to respond at all. Most importantly, Julie’s kind, caring and sensitive manner made such a difference, helping us get through a very sad and difficult time. Her services are very reasonably priced, and unlike others I’ve dealt with in the past, she made no attempt to push expensive, add-on extras. Julie always kept us well-informed and paid careful attention to detail. I could not recommend Julie more highly for her professional, practical and personalised approach.

    Dear Julie,
    The Douglas family wish to express our heartfelt thanks for your much appreciated assistance in the funeral and service for Rena Douglas. The family were all happy with the arrangements and service itself. You treated Rena with so much respect and compassion for the family, it made a difficult time for us so much easier.
    I don’t think we’d have coped without your guidance and empathy and what seemed to be an infinite amount of patience. You gave us a check list which we kept forgetting to read and followed up with gentle reminders . You always had your finger on the pulse and managed everything discreetly. When I almost went into meltdown realising I hadn’t arranged for all of the music to be on the memory stick . You fixed it and calmed me.
    Rena had left strict instructions not to have an expensive funeral and we selected one of your budget funerals. This in no way was reflected by the service and professionalism you and your company provided.
    The detail and professionalism displayed by yourself and your colleagues enabled the family to focus on supporting each other and giving Rena the send off she deserved.

    As a family we would have no hesitation in recommending you to any other family in dealing with a Bereavement.

    Best regards
    Frances Currie Nancy Monssen And Andrew Douglas
    On behalf of the entire Douglas clan

    Thankyou. Excellent t service.
    Prompt response
    Well explained. Excellent communication.
    Personal touches. Very kind and thoughtful.
    We had an unattended cremation and separate wonderful celebration of life gathering. This enabled us to choose when and where and how we celebrated. Less somber with no coffin present. Just like my Dad wanted. Everyone shared happy memories. Highly recommended. Thx

    You are welcome Julie. I was very happy you were able to help. If ever I hear someone has passed I mention about you and your great service. I am very proud for you that you are doing well because funerals can cost so much but it can be kept to a minimum thanks to you. We need more people like you in this world. God bless you. I know you are busy Julie but it would nice to catch up one day for some lunch or even just a coffee. Please keep in touch. Kind regards Romaine xx

    Could not recommend Julie and her team more highly. Her dedication, compassion, understanding and knowledge of the industry is of credit to her.
    Julie looked after everything from order of service through to departure and everything in between and made such a daunting and emotional time for our family, seem totally seamless.
    Julie’s regular checking in to make sure we were all ok, filled us with much confidence and gave us the much needed support we needed to get through this process.
    Thank you so much Julie

    Dear Julie and the team
    We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to everyone involved regarding the Funeral for Milan yesterday.
    My Mum Maria, my sister Anna and myself were so thankful for the personal touch provided from collecting Dad when he died to the way in which all the arrangements were handled leading up to and including the day itself.
    Special mention to Bernadette who was like a friend to us and so kind and caring to Mum at all times.
    We can’t thank you enough.
    Warmest regards

    We cannot begin to express our gratitude to Julie, Bernadette, Peter and the team for their professional and compassionate handling of our fathers funeral.
    Communication between us was remarkable. all aspects of the funeral were discussed and as a small independent funeral service you need go no further.
    They have everything covered for you if you are unable to emotionally deal with everything that needs to be done or give a number of great references to use.
    Thank you sincerely for allowing us to give our father a dignified and beautiful service.
    Anna, Dena and Maria.

    As the anniversary of our mum’s passing nears our family has finally decided to inter her with our dad who passed in 1958.

    This will be the finale of an event which Julie Harwood so patiently and efficiently presided over.
    When the sad day arrived one phone call was all it took for mums funeral arrangements to begin.

    Absolutely everything was taken care of:
    – transport, death certificate, celebrant, chapel,
    – death notices, order of service, refreshments
    – everything was attending to with speed, sensitivity and compassion.

    Family had different ideas and Julie managed to pull everything together and provide a beautiful and memorable service for us all, family and friends.

    Can’t thank Julie enough for helping me through that very sad time.

    Also thank you so much for following up with catering. Further the staff were professional and discreet. I am so delighted to have met you and chosen your services. Sincerely, I would like to thank you for ALL that you did yesterday to ensure the whole afternoon was very wonderful and memorable for everyone! Had J actually been there, he would have also enjoyed it, and even had a good laugh with the Encore clip!

    Till we meet again, sincerely, all the best to you and your family.
