The care & concern shown to us meant the world at such a difficult time.
We were never made to feel as if anything was wasn’t achievable in planning mum’s funeral. We were truly supported into making it a day that will live with us forever.
From the moment we walked through the doors at City Funerals Mackay, we felt a sense of calm and care.
During such an emotional and difficult time for our family, the staff were not only professional but truly compassionate. They took the time to listen, to guide us gently through every step, and made sure our loved one was honoured with dignity and warmth.
Right from when they picked Anthony up to the burial was so personal and caring.
A very big thank you to Belinda and Alisha both made us as a family feel cared about and listened to what we wanted "We Mattered". I cannot express enough gratitude towards both of them.
Whether you've recently lost a loved one or you’re planning for the future, our team is always here to help.
