Testimonials

Fred and Shirley are amazing. Through the entire planning stage they were compassionate, yet informative. Both Fred and Shirley have a wealth of experience and this helped significantly during a very traumatic and sad time. My wife’s service was conducted during COVID restrictions and our friends and families were able to watch the service online and they were able to message messages directly to me. Fred and Shirley’s service is exceptional and I recommend Burnett Regional Funeral Services to everyone.

“We really appreciated your quick response, and your visit to our home. We are aware that you put aside some personal plans to fit in with our needs. Thank you. We were heard, in that without meeting Delma in her life, you helped us present and represent that life in a fitting manner – simple, bright, respectful.”

“We can’t thank you enough for spending so much time with us at the funeral home. Your presence made it feel comfortable. We felt welcomed, you understood the loss we had, you were gentle and kind in letting us visit the loved one we lost at any time, from the day our loved one arrived until she was laid to rest. Your service was fantastic and genuine, organised well, even with changes in between.” Thank you, RF

Fred is very helpful in how he goes about a very sad event in your life. How he goes about it didn’t sadden or upset me when making arrangements.

“I don’t know where to start. There will never be words enough to show the appreciation I have for Fred and his team at Burnett Regional Funeral Services. Losing your mother is absolutely the worst time in your life. Fortunately, I knew exactly what my Mum wanted for her funeral and burial. But … throw COVID-19 into the mix and there’s a whole new world of restrictions. Fred helped us navigate daily changes to what the ceremony could and would look like. If it is at all possible, the service that Fred help deliver was more perfect than we could imagine. And more importantly, was perfect for my Mum – it was her to a tee! Fred, ever accommodating, kind and considerate. An all round nice guy, with a great sense of humour. And the whole time he was helping my family deal with grief and loss, he was dealing with his own wife’s hospitalisation.” Alana

“Professional, organised and heartfelt service from start to finish.”  Tim

“From the first phone call to Fred and Shirley, the family were given the best advice regarding funeral arrangements.  They met with us personally and helped us through the process of arranging booklets, photos and the entire service, to make Dad’s farewell a fitting tribute to a wonderful man.  Once we had sorted arrangements out, they told us they would organise everything on the day, including flowers and set up of the sound system and hall, as well as everything that was required at the cemetery.  This made the whole funeral and interment service less stressful at a very difficult time.  The service in the hall was professionally conducted, but with a personal touch that warmed our hearts.  Likewise, the interment service at the cemetery was respectful and comforting for family and friends. ”  Nick

I can never thank you enough for the way we were able to farewell our loved one to his resting place and the manner in which you conducted the service and the use of his special ute. it was great to have the grandchildren involved. Excellent service, quality and value.

Shirley made the whole experience extremely easy in a difficult time, taking me step by step through the process in the most respectful way. She was very accommodating in carrying out personal touches we wanted to add to make our loved one’s day exactly what he would have wanted. Excellent quality, service and value.

Excellent service.  Fred came to me and I live 80 kms from Gayndah.  Amazing service.  Nothing was too much trouble.  Ashes were delivered to me.  All my questions were answered without hesitation.  I highly recommend Fred and Shirley
