Carlyle Family Funerals

From my first phone call to Meagan and Deb, I was put at ease. Meagan helped us through the process of organising the funeral for my late father-in- law. Nothing was a problem and they handled all the intricacies involved in the death of a loved one. Personally I believe, they went above and beyond to ensure all of the family were considered at every level. I would highly recommend Carlyle Family Funerals, for their compassion, empathy, grace and professionalism. Thank you again ladies, very much appreciated.

When our Mum passed away unexpectedly my sister and I both decided to share the research & contact Funeral homes. She took the big corporates & I looked for someone smaller & more personal. We knew exactly what we wanted for Mums send off and so that's what we went looking for. My sister had no luck with the big corporates who were only looking to sell us a pigeon hole package. I found on my searches the lovely Meagan from Carlyle Family Funerals & immediately felt relieved that we had found someone who understood what we wanted and was completely with us on Mum's last journey. From supporting us in our decision to make our own pine casket, (Meagan even picked it up from our house!) to ordering the special urn that we wanted from a particular supplier. Planning a funeral is such a strange place to find yourself in and finding Meagan from Carlyle was truly a blessing to myself and my family. We do not hesitate to recommend Carlyle Family Funerals - look no further, they will make your sad time a time of comfort & peace.

Carlyle Family Funerals were the best choice for us ever. After our little baby girl died we were in such good hands and felt treated like family. Meagan from Carlyle Family Funerals moved mountains for us so that we could have the funeral arrangements in our rather short timeframe. She was very caring and empathetic.My husband and I can but only strongly recommend Carlyle Family Funerals.

Expressing my heartfelt gratitude to Carlyle Family Funerals, in particular to the empathetic ladies Meagan and Deb, who took such care in helping us organise a funeral. They took care of everything. Meagan and Deb are well versed in their roles as funeral directors showing professionalism but most importantly understanding our depth of sadness with genuine kindness.

Thank you Meagan and Deb. Your experience and genuine care was what made me choose Carlyle Family Funerals over one of the more well known, but certainly less sincere, funeral directors. You took wonderful care of dad from the moment we spoke on the phone until the delivery of his ashes. Thank you for everything, Brett.

After researching and speaking to several funeral directors both large corporations and smaller companies, we decided to go with Carlyle Family Funerals. Not only were they transparent about their costs which was laid out on their user friendly website, but it was the initial call with Meagan that helped seal the decision as she made you feel right at ease, was a great listener and took the time to fully understand our family's needs and to answer any questions we had.When our dad unexpectedly passed away, Meagan and team were immediate in their action in caring for Dad. She was able to arrange for Dad’s service within the week, she was extremely organised (with a checklist of items to be done), easily contactable and provided gentle and compassionate guidance as we made various decisions about the service. We never felt pushed or ‘sold’ to.The service itself went smoothly without any hitches on the day. Numerous attendees commented on how lovely the service was and the chapel at Springvale Botanical Cemetery was well ventilated, clean and the live stream worked well. We felt taken care of by Meagan and team during the whole process and felt that the quality of the service we received could not be any better. They even helped with getting dad's ashes safely back home to us. Thank you Meagan and team for all your efforts during our time of grief.

Meagan and Deb were caring and professional from the very first meeting.We felt comfortable and reassured that our aunt was in such compassionate hands.Their practical approach was easy to understand and we felt that we were well looked after throughout this emotional time.

Meagan and Deb helped me with the funerals of both my parents. I couldn’t have asked for a more compassionate, caring experience. The whole process was done with respect and dignity and everything came together beautifully.At one of the most difficult times it’s nice to feel everything is in capable hands and you don’t have to worry and stress about the details.Can’t recommend highly enough.

I don't even know where to start.If i could give 100 stars I would.Megan worked with us right from the beginning.She is genuine, caring, respectful, patient and compassionate.No task or requirement was too much. Whatever we asked for, Megan went above and beyond to ensure it was done.Megan had everything prepared beautiful and just as we had asked.Megan's 'job' does not end after the service, in fact I think I have seen her more after the service.Megan keeps in contact after the service to see if there is anything else we need and to check in.It means so much when she sends through a message just seeing how we are and offering genuine loving advice.Megan is very passionate in her role and treats every client as if they were her very own family.I have so much respect for Megan and I highly recommend her services.

From the time I made the first phone call, Meagan was so caring and compassionate. Due to Covid, things were a little bit more complicated for my family and I, and Meagan gave me the reassurance that I needed and that my Dad was in good hands. Thank you Meagan and Deb for your looking after my Dad and for going out of your way to ensure everything we wanted for my Dad was available, in these difficult times. I highly recommend Carlyle Family Funerals for their great service, communication, compassion and price. Thank you again Meagan and Deb.
