Joseph Medcalf Funerals and in particular Michelle Fisher were nothing short of exceptionally understanding, thoughtful and professional. We rang multiple Funeral Service companies and as soon as we heard Michelle, we knew we were in the right place.

From start to finish, Michelle made every effort to make the process as smooth and pain-free as possible. We had added complications as we had to fly with our loved one's ashes and Michelle helped us with that, on top of expediting everything to meet our stressful time restrictions. Everything was transparent and there were no hidden costs.

The service was smooth, in a lovely bright room with a water feature. The livestream worked wonderfully and we have been able to save the recording ourselves.

I would strongly recommend Joseph Medcalf Funerals, and Michelle will look after you. Thank you again, Michelle.

Joseph Medcalf's staff were absolutely wonderful when our loved one passed away recently.

Our funeral arranger was always upfront about our options, transparent about costs and made the time to check on how we were going throughout the process.

All the staff we dealt with were kind, efficient and informative so that we were able to proceed with complete confidence and without any stress as to the funeral arrangements and day of the service.

They work as a terrific informed team so were always able to help if we had any queries and managed every detail of our family member's passing from our first phone call to make arrangements, to the day of the funeral, and coordination of the Death Certificate. They demonstrated complete professionalism in every step.

Joseph Medcalfs guided us through the most difficult time of our lives with compassion and certainty. We are so grateful and we would thoroughly recommend them in every aspect of their business.

The day went really well, and I felt grateful that everything was handled exactly as it should be. Michelle and the team was considerate and compassionate at every step, which made me feel completely at ease knowing things were in good hands. Even small details, like the light patch of rain during the service, felt meaningful and added to the day being so memorable.

Vanessa and her team recently, and very quickly, arranged our mother's funeral which was outstanding. Their attention to detail and follow through with everything made the planning seamless. The funeral was more than we had hoped for and fitting farewell for our mum. I'd recommend Vanessa and Joseph Medcalf to any family finds themselves needing this service.
