Iain, you made everything so much easier for me and my family and will always be incredibly grateful.
I really want to thank you Siobhan and the team, who I've worked closely with on two funerals of loved ones I hold very closely to my heart. As of recent, Siobhan and the team handled the transition from another funeral company flawlessly and effortlessly. Siobhan handled the whole process with a lot of care and with a high attention to detail, she knows when to lead and when to support. We had many small requests and traditional customs which Siobhan and team were able to ensure were respected and handled with care. Thank you again for helping us get through what has truly been an incredible difficult and devastating time.
I can't thank Iain and the team enough for helping us put on a lovely farewell for our Mum. From the first call to picking up the ashes, everything was done with care and kindness. Iain was very reassuring and had a gentle caring manner that made planning the funeral easier than expected.
The team at Allison Monkhouse treated our whole family with the utmost respect and professionalism. My mum’s funeral service was seamless and hit exactly the right tone.
The worst day of my life was when my son passed away in April. My family is eternally grateful to Stephanie who helped us to get through the funeral with her genuine caring and professionalism. It takes a special person to do this and you are definitely one Steph. Thank you so much from the Lindley Family

We had a lovely experience with Allison Monkhouse the entire way through and could not have given our dad a better send off. Siobhan and India were both a pleasure to deal with, guiding us through that heartbreaking time. We had family watching the live stream from interstate and overseas with no issues and we were happy with the catering provided. Thank you Siobhan and India.
Thank you Siobhan & team for a truly beautiful send off for our loved one. The process was so easy & supportive. The venue is beautiful & the celebrant Siobhan recommended to us was also great. Thank you for great service during a really difficult time.
