    We are so glad we chose the co-op for my dad’s funeral. From start to finish they were professional yet compassionate and gave lots of guidance throughout. Special thanks to Dave and Ted who came out to our home at a very sad and traumatic time, Leah in the office who was super helpful with all aspects of the funeral and Nick the celebrant who was chosen to conduct the ceremony was a perfect fit. Thank you to everyone.

  • 5 Catherine Harvey 30th Aug 2025

    From the first initial meeting everything went at the right pace, nothing too much trouble, nothing was rushed. The recommendation of Tony Rabin as the Celebrant was the beyond perfect. A meeting with Tony to discuss the order and content of the service resulted in a word and pitch perfect celebration of my auntie's life. I would encourage anyone seeking support at such a sad and final life event to choose the Coop and Mr Rabin.
