What do you like about being a funeral arranger?

I absolutely love hearing stories about a loved one and finding a personal touch that we can bring into their celebration of life to make it truly memorable. Behind the scenes, my team and I take a great deal of pride in lessening the stress on our families and helping them through this difficult journey.

What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?

For the past 20 years, I have been officiating at car rallies in the local and surrounding areas - I absolutely love it! I am a bit of a car nut and belong to several different clubs in Canberra. Aside from this, I am also an avid reader and love crocheting.

What's the most remarkable funeral you've ever arranged? 

One of the most remarkable funerals I have arranged was for a military hero in the Battle of Long Tan. The funeral cortege was led by a riderless Light Horse with boots in the stirrups but placed backwards.

Everybody we dealt with was very professional, always friendly and helpful and they had a sense of humour. We felt that Mum was very well taken care of and we felt supported at all times.
