“I would like to express our thanks on behalf of the Watherston Family and friends for the wonderful care and assistance Michelle gave us with Dad’s Funeral Service and burial. Michelle gave us every care and assistance we could have asked for, going way over and beyond. Dad would have been so proud of the day and the beautiful and fitting farewell we were able to give him.” Donna Bradshaw
“Thank you for your thoroughly organised and caring approach, your lists, your gentle guidance. We appreciated the ambience of your setting at Heritage, the beautiful tea service, the home made slices, even the stray cat created a humorous diversion. We left your establishment feeling as if we were dealing with someone who knew Jack and his world, you knew the church, the Catholic ceremony and how things were done. Please thank your team for their excellent communication, the creation of the Order of Service booklet, complete with photos, the liaison with the church, sourcing the music for the cemetery, the flowers, the rose petals and the team who supported us – all gave context and comfort. You offered genuine and personal support. You also followed up with Centrelink and others which eased the angst for us. Judy you are warm, compassionate, thoroughly professional and simply superb at what you do. Thank you.“ – John Fitzgerald
