Good afternoon Carly.
On behalf of the family I would like to thank you for the sensitive and professional way look care of our mother’s funeral. In my experience, these things can leave you feel flat and distressed or comforted and inspired – and the tone is set by the funeral director and the celebrant. In both cases I feel we really ‘lucked out’ and chose the best of both. Your recommendation of Sarah was spot on – How many times at a funeral do you expect people to comment on the sensitivity of the celebrant? And yet many people asked her name yesterday. While I hope I never need to, I would certainly recommend you both to others.
Please feel free to use this review as you wish.

My name is Jon von Goes, I’m a celebrant. Weddings mainly, but of late I’ve been doing a few funerals for Greenhaven. I like the way they go about their business. Straight up.
There is movement in the funeral business. There are new ways of conducting funerals. There is a small new breed of funeral directors who are rethinking things and making funerals more culturally relevant. Carly and Tim are a part of that new breed.
To do funerals well you need to make them all about the person who has just died. Not about other stuff that doesn’t matter. You need to get the tone right. You don’t need to bung it on too hard, nor do you want to come on too soft. And you don’t want to rip people off by selling them incredibly expensive coffins with ornate handles. You need to listen to what the people who are paying for the funeral want.
Carly and Tim get it right.
With the sudden passing of my father, our family was confronted with the stressful and unfamiliar process that surrounds organising a funeral. We had no idea who could help us with the funeral arrangements, so I searched the Internet for reviews and assistance. I soon found Greenhaven Funerals were highly recommended. I don’t really do reviews, however the dedication, compassion and professionalism shown to our family exceeded all of our expectations. We never just felt like a client, the attention to detail and service was impeccable. The feedback from friends and family proved we had made the right choice! Thank you Greenhaven and thank you Carly.
