  • 5 Tanya Marshall 10th Feb 2024

    I can't thank Pearce Funeral Services enough. The service for my wonderful father was beautiful and everything was just as I had hoped it would be.

    Stephanie was wonderful and I had every confidence that she had everything organised and under control.

    She introduced me to an amazing celebrant who captured Dad's personality and character to a tee in the eulogy.

    It was a lovely way to say goodbye.

    The wake was also uplifting with many friends and family sharing fun memories of Dad in “his day”.

    He would have been delighted.

    Thank you again for everything. Your care and professionalism made a difficult day much easier to bear.
