Sahara Funerals

Sahara were there for me from the very beginning. They went above and beyond during our difficult time. At all times they were professional, understanding, compassionate & curtious. My family & I highly recommend Sahara funerals.

I contacted Sahara funerals at an unfortunate situation where my friend's husband passed away. He had to be repatriated to India. The situation was even more critical as he was a traveller and did not have a family here. In the current world, where you see job as job, Shrada and Uday valued the situation and were empathetic.They met me on Sunday to sort of things for the family which they could have easily avoided saying that it's a weekend. They even took an extra mile and worked along side the insurance company. Their first priority was to send the person back to India. It has been few weeks since the repatriation and they have been patiently waiting for the fund release. They never pressurised me on it. Honestly, we rarely find people like Shrada and Uday. They definitely see it more than a business. If not them, the process wouldn't have been smooth. Thanks Sahara Funerals.

I contacted Sahara funerals upon my dad's passing and Uday (Lawrence) was very helpful in explaining the process, organising the funeral and cremation to take place within 24 hours. It was not easy to align the priest's availability with crematorium and chapel availability but he managed it. For us it also helped that he is well aware of Hindu customs and the details around South Indian traditions/procedures. His team is efficient and sensitive, and they presented dad very well.

Dear Uday and sharda,I would like to convey my THANKS to you and Sharda on behalf of my family for your sincere and personalised funeral service in our mourning and stressful time.From very beginning to the end of funeral service, you and sharda guided us through all the process very professionally and in a supportive manner. You provided us enough time to say good bye to our beloved mum. The whole process was conducted in a respective manner and I will not hesitate to recommend your services to any member of public. Please accept my heartfelt thanks and best wishes in future.RegardsDaljit Singh

Sahara funerals conducted funeral service for my mother's funeral two weeks ago. From the moment I contacted their owner Uday Prakash, who explained me in detail the requirements in Sydney for a Hindu funeral. On day of sad passing away of mum, both Udayji and Shardaji made sure the finer details regarding the funeral were taken care of giving us more time to grieve and focus on other important things. The services provided by on the day I contacted Udayji to make arrangements to the final moment till when the service was concluded; was full of consideration and sympathy for all the family members. The fact that the service was very dignified and respectful was also echoed in the feedback provided by family and friends present on the day.Being of Hindu faith, Sahara funerals took care that all aspects relating to our faith were followed during the funeral. They also assisted in providing services of a hindu priest who performed last rites for mum on the day of the funeral and who will also perform religious ceremony in the coming days. I would highly recommend the services for families in Sydney who are in need of a quality funeral service.
