What families say
RUVANI “LIFE THE LIFE” KURUPPU
Oct 2025I contacted Simple Goodbyes from Melbourne when my brother-in-law passed away in Canberra. Erica and the team went above and beyond in assisting us to fulfil his last wish of being cremated. They handled everything with care and professionalism — all we had to do was attend the ceremony. Thank you to the entire team for making it a truly memorable and respectful farewell.

Sept 2025A Compassionate and Seamless Farewell Experience From the moment we reached out to Simple Goodbyes, Garth and the team showed an incredible level of care, professionalism, and empathy that made a difficult time much more bearable for our family. He listened deeply, respected our wishes, and ensured that every detail, from the service to the personal touches, reflected the spirit of our dad beautifully. It never felt transactional; it felt like we were being supported by someone who genuinely cared. We are so grateful for the way Simple Goodbyes helped us honour our father’s life with dignity and grace. Thank you, Garth, for your kindness and for making a painful goodbye feel a little more peaceful. Highly recommended to anyone seeking a thoughtful, respectful, and compassionate funeral service.

Mar 2026We recently used Simple Goodbyes during the very difficult time of my dad’s passing, and I cannot speak highly enough of their service. From the very first phone call, the team was compassionate, respectful and incredibly professional. They guided us through every step with patience and understanding, making a heartbreaking situation much easier to manage. Nothing felt rushed, and every detail was handled with care and dignity. Their communication was clear, their organisation seamless, and they showed genuine empathy throughout the entire process. It gave our family great comfort knowing Dad was being looked after so respectfully. Thank you to the team at Simple Goodbyes for your professionalism and kindness during such a challenging time. We are truly grateful.

Nov 2025During a time of deep grief, even simple decisions can feel overwhelming. I contacted a few funeral providers, but most had complicated pricing structures and add-ons I simply couldn’t process. Then I found Simple Goodbyes, and everything changed. Their approach was clear, honest, and straightforward. No confusing packages, no pressure, no upselling — just a simple plan that covered everything we needed, and more than we could have hoped for. From the very first phone call, they were responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely caring. Throughout the entire process, they made things easy at a time when nothing felt easy. Every question was answered quickly, every step was handled gently, and they guided us through the arrangements with kindness and respect. On the day of the service, they were exceptional. Many of our family and friends commented on how empathetic and attentive they were. They didn’t just run a ceremony — they honoured my mum. Their warmth, professionalism, and heartfelt presence made a difficult day feel peaceful, meaningful, and full of love. I cannot thank Simple Goodbyes enough for the care they showed my family. If you want a service that is simple, compassionate, and delivered by people who truly care, I absolutely recommend them. They helped give my mum a beautiful farewell, and I will always be grateful.

Oct 2025Simple Goodbyes took care of our family's cremation needs with outstanding care and professionalism. From the first call they were clear, organised and easy to deal with at a time of need. Their team were genuinely caring, highly proficient, with attention to detail. They included a personalised, engraved name plate, which meant so much to our family. Every step was explained and handled smoothly. An excellent company that delivers exactly what you need with compassion and efficiency. Highly recommended.
