We attended an RSL Service held by Crane Funerals recently. Everything on the day was done with the utmost respect and professionalism. Their personal service and attention to detail was amazing. Our whole family was so appreciative of the care and support shown by Crane Funerals. They made the whole situation so much easier to deal with, and gave us a beautiful sendoff for our loved one, with everything exactly as we wished for and had discussed. I wouldn't hesitate recommending them for any DVA / RSL funeral, or any funeral at all. Thank you all again so much.

As you are sitting here reading this, you may be wondering how on Earth to cope with a death in your family too. This is the position my family found ourselves in when we lost our sister. We still think of how much peace of mind we lost finding it so hard to make a decision. Imagine how much easier it is, and how much better you’ll feel when you find a Funeral Director who just gets it. We hadn’t been to a lot of funerals as a family, but could see that there were a lot of options available. My mother feels that you get what you pay for, and we were leaning towards a large well known Company we’d been referred to. That was when we happened across Crane Funerals. We were so glad we made the call. From the first contact the team helped us so much. They spent the time to get to know us and we knew they genuinely felt for our situation. We didn’t feel this same ‘connection’ with the larger Company we talked to, which really was important to us. Although we hadn’t heard of Crane Funerals before using their services, we were so glad we did. In the event of needing more funeral assistance in the future, our family will not hesitate to use Crane Funerals.

My brother died recently. His passing was sudden and very difficult for us. Crane Funerals helped us arrange his funeral. Many people are confused and just lost when it comes to arranging a funeral. Damian and his team made things so much easier to understand and handle. The funeral and burial on the day was just as we asked for. The music, the booklets, and the Celebrant Crane Funerals chose was great for our family too. Loss is very hard - the choice of funeral director is easy - we wouldn’t use anyone but Crane Funerals after how much they helped us. Crane Funerals helped us arrange all the grave/burial details and costs also.

My wife and I have attended a couple of Services with Crane Funerals as the funeral director. We have felt their care and service is wonderful. A more celebratory experience. Historically tending to use Corporate Companies, we were very impressed with Crane Funerals approach to bereaved families, and all who attend the funeral. In fact, all they did was first rate - nothing lacking at all. Crane Funerals will be arranging our pre-paid funerals soon. We want to make sure we too can be sent off as we would like to be. We thoroughly recommend this Company to anyone who has suffered a loss; or if preparing for your own farewell.

I worked in the funeral industry for 20 years and retired as a Celebrant 18 months ago. I have worked with all the major funeral homes and many of the smaller firms. My wife and I chose to do our pre-paid funeral with Crane Funerals. We did so because of the integrity and honesty of Damian and his wife Kellie May. They have an eye for detail and a real care for us as clients and also provide excellent value for money, which was not expensive. Strongly recommended.

Our family would like to thank Damian and his team for their excellent service. they were professional, highly respected the dead and the family members and was very understanding and reasonable. thank you so much Crane Funerals for making the most difficult time of our life easy and smooth. all the best guys!

I found myself in the difficult situation of my husband requesting there not be a funeral. Damien allowed me to plan a memorial for him with military inclusions and helped me make it the most amazing service.
He was very kind, understanding and professional in every way with all of our dealings with him. I highly recommend him and his staff to give you the chance to farewell your loved ones with ease and dignity.

I would like to thank Damien , Bob the celebrant for a wonderful service for my beloved son Nathan. Very professional and caring people who made the day special. Thankyou so much Damien for caring at a hard time everyone said you did a wonderful job. God Bless you all from Tracey Jessica, family and friends of Nathan.

Damian made the process of organising the funeral very easy and a relaxed atmosphere. On the day he made it a really warm environment for all concerned. A Beautiful Service. Thank you.
