What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Simplicity Funerals Woolloongabba has supported families in the Brisbane district through some of the most difficult periods of their lives, and several accounts describe the care they received as compassionate, kind and professional. Much of the praise centres on Neil, who is named in several accounts for listening patiently, offering sound advice and arranging services that families described as beautiful and well organised, including cremation and funeral plans put in place ahead of time.

Other staff members, among them Stacey, Kate and Julie, are also thanked for their warmth and understanding, with one family noting that Julie travelled to a home when illness made attending in person impossible. One thing mentioned again and again is the ease of the process: wishes were recorded and carried out, arrangements were handled without fuss, and families felt they could focus on one another. Several customers who had returned for a second or third time said the same standard of attention was maintained on each occasion, and that the service felt both respectful and affordable. Gratitude is expressed for the way the team guided families through grief and delivered a fitting farewell.

At the worst time of my life, emotionally and unfortunately physically and mentally as well, I had my beautiful mother pass so unexpected. I had also caught a few bugs at the hospital while being with mum, like the flu and RSV. I was so unwell alongside my mum, in her room when she passed. After it got worse, but Julie from Simplicity Funerals was amazing. She came to my house as I was too sick to drive or leave. We met outside and downstairs with our masks. I will never forget how Julie made this process, one, that I can say, "I did well for mum". I don't know how I could have organised this farewell for mum in the state I was in without Julies help. A very kind soul.

We recently had my Grandad's funeral at Simplicity Funerals Woolloongabba. My Nanna would like to leave a few words: "I would like to thank Neil and his staff for helping my family and myself through the hardest time of our lives. Recently, my husband Bevan passed away at 90 years of age. 6 months prior, we visited Simplicity Funeral Directors at Woolloongabba to arrange our cremations and funeral plans. 2 days after my husband passed away, my family and I met Neil. He was exceptionally helpful with this difficult task. As per my husband's wishes, the Ceremony was held on the premises with the attendance of our family only. At the conclusion of the formalities, Neil suggested my Grandsons should carry Bevan's coffin to the hearse. To be given this privilege will stay in their hearts forever. A perfect farewell. Thanks to Neil and the staff at Simplicity Funeral Directors. - Phyllis Fleming "

I have used their services 3 times in my life. Knowing I can count on Simplicity Funerals to do a fantastic job in a very difficult time goes a long way to ease the pain and stress of making the arrangements of a funeral. Thank you Neil and the team so very much.

A big thankyou to Neil for the funeral service of my late mother. We had gone through a very stressful time due to my mother's illness and subsequent passing. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Neil. You listened patiently to our story, compassionate and understanding. You offered excellent advice and you were very professional. You put together a great service. Everybody gave us positive feedback. It is the second time we have engaged your services and we have been extremely happy both times. Cannot recommend highly enough.
