It is with great sadness at this time in our lives on the death of the matriarch of the family Dulcie at the ripe old age of 96 on the 4th January and then shortly afterwards on the 10th January our son in law Rob at the age of 44 that we found ourselves in need of a funeral home to help us plan and execute 2 very touching and emotional cremation services. We were referred to The Modern Funeral by a good friend and we can only say that Tora with her team provided an exceptional service at what was really quite short notice arranging the recovery of the deceased from the hospital mortuary, arrangement of an appropriate crematorium, hearse and all the trappings at a very realistic and affordable price. We cannot express our thanks and appreciation enough for their loving and compassionate support through this difficult process.

The Modern Funeral provided a very friendly and personal service for my husband. There were special circumstances required for his preparation and funeral, all of which were dealt with sensitively and efficiently. My husband and I took the opportunity to meet with the team prior to his death and he was able to let them know exactly how he wanted his service to be. They also helped with our request for live music by consulting with the artists directly regarding these arrangements. The most important part of the process for myself was the close personal contact with Taura the Funeral Director who was sensitive to our wishes and feelings and was easily approachable for advise. Our day went exactly as planned and we cant thank them enough for all the help they gave us. All at an extremely competitive price. I can highly recommend them.

Affordable and caring service. I would recommend the Modern Funeral to anyone that is looking for a personalised approach to a loved one’s service. I am extremely grateful to Tora and her team for their help during a difficult time. 

Very professional and their approach helped family deal with the funeral at very difficult time.

Lisa was very attentive, compassionate and caring and could not have done more to ensure the funeral arrangements for my mum were in line with our wishes. Thank you so much!
