What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Compassion and unhurried personal attention run through the accounts left for this Port Adelaide funeral director, with the Monte family name appearing again and again alongside staff members singled out by name. Customers describe Michelle as warm, professional and a steady presence who guided them step by step through decisions, while Bec receives thanks for keeping a grieving relative calm and for small thoughtful touches. Ty is repeatedly credited with coordination and for handling arrangements with respect, dignity and care, including liaising with venues interstate and with local clubs.

An aspect raised across a number of reviews is that no request seemed too burdensome, whether the farewell was a traditional chapel gathering or an unconventional celebration such as one held in a ballroom overlooking the ocean, and that attention to detail extended from the first meeting through to the day itself. Patience and a willingness to accommodate family wishes, including moving a service to a football club's home ground and sorting out the sound system, recur across the tributes. The same sentiments return in different words: handled with love, never rushed, genuinely caring for the family's wellbeing. Michelle emerges as the name most often thanked.

I used Tony Monte Funerals after my dad’s passing and am so grateful for the care and compassion shown throughout the process. Cassie was incredibly kind, supportive and understanding, and helped make a very upsetting time much more bearable. I would highly recommend Tony Monte Funerals to anyone needing their services.

The five stars here are thoroughly deserved. Michelle took such wonderful care of our family at a time of such sadness and stress. She took time with us to explain all processes, options and procedures. She laughed with us as we reminisced and she knew all the right things to say to us in the more serious and sad times. We will be forever grateful for Michelle’s kindness and expertise. Thank you Michelle 🙏🏻❤️

We travelled from the UK to arrange the funeral of a much loved Irish uncle who died on March 1st. Tony Monte Funeral Services were superb throughout. Patiently answering questions, sourcing a tasteful wicker coffin, advising us on so many tricky details and providing an online video service for those in Europe and Australia who couldn't travel to the service. They even had the ashes airfreighted to London without administrative delays. They deserve everyone of these five stars.

I can not recommend Tony Monte enough they are so welcoming and accommodating at a very vulnerable time. Michelle is such a beautiful person and I'm so glad she came into our lives at this stage. The funeral was absolutely beautiful and a great celebration of mum (Margy). The attention to detail and nothing was to hard, they went through everything step by step to make the decision a bit easier. Once we agreed to make them our funeral director they rang the hospital and brought mum in to there care and looked after her all the way through. I know mum would have loved a good chat with Michelle. Thank you so much for everything nothing could ever be enough to what you did for our family. 💐💐
