What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Funeral ceremonies arranged through Farrell & O'Neill Funerals are described by reviewers as peaceful, respectful and free from any pressure to spend more. Staff members named in accounts include Sarah, Rebecca, Jess and Stuart, whose professionalism and compassion are credited with guiding families calmly through arrangements, including call-outs in the early hours.

A theme running through the feedback is that pricing was clear from the outset, with no attempt to upsell or add unnecessary extras, and several customers note that the final cost matched what had been quoted. The care given to the deceased before the service, the celebrant duties performed by staff such as Rebecca, and services held at Centennial Park are recurring themes, with families describing ceremonies as beautiful and fitting tributes. A number of reviews mention that requests were accommodated without fuss and that the whole process was made as stress-free as possible.

Repeat patronage features strongly, with some families returning for a second or third funeral and finding the same attentiveness, while others note that relatives and friends have since engaged the firm on their recommendation. The dignified manner in which staff carried out their duties, from first contact through to the farewell, is what reviewers highlight as making an overwhelmingly difficult period easier to bear.

We engaged Farrell and O'Neil funerals to help us arrange my father's funeral. As I have never been through this process before I was very worried. Rebecca made the whole experience so easy and non- stressful for us thank goodness. She guided us through everything calmly and with minimal fuss and stress. She also acted as our celebrant and she was wonderful. The result was a service that was so beautiful and "right" for my dad and our family and friends. We are so grateful to Rebecca and Farrell&O'Neil for their care and guidance ar this upsetting time. We can thoroughly recommend them.

I cannot thank the team at Farrell & O'Neill funerals enough for their amazing care. From the very 1st phone call to the last embrace they were nothing but personable, caring, and accommodating. No request was too much. It feels like for those days they become part of your family. They cared for my Father in June 25 and my mother in Law 2 weeks ago and made the heartbreaking task as easy as possible. Having 2 very different passings ( 1 with Cancer, and the other Suddenly unexpectedly at home ) the process of placing our loved ones in their care was made easy as You knew from the 1st moment that our loved ones were not just a job, but real people and respected. Thank you again . The Nimmo / Kernot families

We can’t speak highly enough about the service and care shown to our mother after her passing recently by the staff of Farrell and O’Neill. From the minute they arrived in the early hours last Friday morning to our beautiful service yesterday, their words , care and actions were of the highest standards. Thank you

We are so pleased that we chose Farrell & O'Neill Funerals for our mother Susan's service. Working with Mark and the team, the guidance and stewarding they provided was just what you hope for in these difficult times while they expertly and discretely worked on the large quantity of work required behind the scenes. This team is what you look for in a Funeral Director organisation. We feel fortunate to have been recommended to and gone with Mark and the team at Farrell & O'Neill Funerals. Thank you Mark and staff for the service, your approach to your work, and all of your effort.
