Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Professional and Sympathetic: Second to None.

I contracted Craig's services to transfer my grandfather after he bequeathed his body to medical science after his death.

Craig took the time to sit and talk with me in a completely neutral environment and went out of his way to make me feel comfortable. He was truly sympathetic and supportive, both empathetic towards the situation and able to very clearly answer some of the questions I had about the process.

The level of professionalism he showed me was unmatched and I believe I would be hard pressed to find any other funeral director who would provide the same standard of care towards their client and their families. I will most certainly be using him again for future arrangements and plans.

A Worthwhile Recommendation

I first met Craig at a networking event and learned more about the service he provides as a celebrant. Two months later, a member of my family passed away, and I recommended Craig to my family. We booked Craig directly, and he helped us in selecting the right funeral director. We much preferred his input on who to use.

Craig was attentive to the needs of everyone, which was difficult and challenging with so many wanting to have an input. The communication was fantastic. The meeting at our home was wonderful, and he even brought biscuits and a few packs of tissues, which was a nice touch.

The service itself was fantastic. Craig really understood the needs of my family and managed to capture the life of my aunty without actually meeting her in person. I cannot recommend Craig enough. His modern, fresh approach to death and how he treats families makes it feel like he was part of the family himself. Thank you so much, Craig!

Beautiful service

Craig made the whole process of planning my Mum’s funeral easy. He was gentle, caring and walked us all through it. The service itself reflected my Mum’s life and personality perfectly and was really special. I can’t thank him enough and he gave us a copy of the service afterwards which was beautifully presented. He goes above and beyond and cares deeply about what he does. Thank you Craig.

Highly recommend

Craig is warm, personable and hugely efficient. He really captured my Nan's sparkle and kindness, and the tribute he wrote for her was so tender and lovely.
I wholeheartedly recommend him to create a wonderful funeral service.

Dear Liz,

I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your touching review. It was an honour to be a part of commemorating your Nan’s life, and I am so pleased to hear that the service resonated with you and your family.

Capturing the essence of your Tess's sparkle and kindness was a truly special experience. Tess must have been a remarkable person, and it was important to me that her tribute reflected the love and warmth she brought into all your lives. Your kind words affirm that I was able to convey her spirit in a meaningful way.

Thank you for your wholehearted recommendation. It means the world to me that you felt supported and that the service honoured your Nan’s memory in a way that brought comfort to your family.

If there is anything more I can do for you or your family, please don't hesitate to contact me.
