About Gympie Funerals

We cover all parts of the Gympie area including Rainbow Beach, Tin Can Bay, the Mary Valley, Gunalda, Kilkivan, Goomeri and of course Gympie itself.

What Our Clients Say
I would like to say a formal “Thank You” to you especially and to your colleagues from Gympie Funerals for the very significant part you played in farewelling our mother, the late Florence Irene Grainger. I like to think if mum were able to tell us, she would say “That’s just the way I wanted everything to be”. Your willingness to fit in with our slightly unusual format was very much appreciated…… you already provide a facility and service which are excellent. Sincerely on behalf of the Grainger family…
Thank you for guiding me through the process of Mum’s Funeral with such care. You were all so professional yet thoughtful, doing such a wonderful job of helping us all say goodbye. Thank you for doing what you all do so well. Warm regards
I was completely impressed and comforted by the overall professional and compassionate services. It helped to make things a little easier to bear.
Our whole family appreciates the warmth, concern and professionalism given to our family.
Due to previous services attended, the decision to bring him here was not a hard one, you have an excellent reputation which continues on. Great job.
Just a note to thank you all so very sincerely for your exceptional kindness and service during our bereavement for Harry King. Coman, I could not fault one single word you said during the service, nor one single interaction. Though you did not know Harry, you absolutely captured his essence from conversations, and that is a wonderful skill. These are also the sentiments of the visiting family on the day. Paul, Brian and Jeff – like Coman, you too are exceptional, thoroughly professional, kind and compassionate gentlemen who made that difficult week as easy to deal with as it can be for the bereaved. The environment – the office, gardens, chapels, and ante-rooms – at Gympie Funerals is peaceful and so respectful in one’s time of sorrow. That lovely tranquility was symbolic for us, for what we wish for Harry on his afterlife journey. From a special place in our hearts, we thank you all so very much.
Our Thank You to you and your staff for arranging Mum’s farewell in such a short time. We will always be grateful to you for your organization and professionalism.
