What families say
Victoria
Jan 2026Steele and the team are absolutely amazing. I've helped plan a few funerals. This by far was the easiest. Team was prepared. Had a straight forward process. No question was missed, and nothing forgotten. All details were double checked. Absolutely perfect. Couldn't recommend the team enough.

Feb 2026A very professional compassionate team who helped at a difficult time
Patricia Woods
May 2024A million thanks to Meighans for their compassionate and professional support in the funeral and burial of my beloved brother. I entrusted him to you with the unwavering belief that he deserved the best, and Meighans care is definitely the best. First Meighans delivered my mother through her resting place journey, and now my brother. The depth of respect Meighans has in dealing with our loved ones in their passing and the families and friends left behind during the hardest part of loss gives comfort and healing. Beautiful service, hassle free organisation, beautiful booklets and flowers, distinguished and respectful service event and interment. Thank you to all the staff at Meighans.
Craig Kennedy
Oct 2023Planning and organising a funeral is never a pleasant experience, but the staff at Meighans were somehow able to make this happen. Their courteous, professional, and efficient service is to be commended.
