When the funeral is required, your family simply contacts the Tobin Brothers funeral director named in your plan. We’ll carry out the arrangements in accordance with your documented wishes and support your family throughout the process.
Previously Tobins organised my Mother's funeral and we were very happy with how that was organised, so went with Tobin's again for my Father's funeral.
The Belconnen chapel and function room is a very convenient venue and stress free with no time pressures.
Organised, effortless and customer focused
Whether you've recently lost a loved one or you’re planning for the future, our Canberra funeral directors are always here to help.
