What families say
Rhonda Sochacki
Sept 2025Margaret from the Newtown Simplicity branch was professional, caring and empathetic. She managed all the arrangements well and my mother’s “Celebration of Life” was a lovely experience.
Eve Teran
Feb 2025Big corporation that wanted to charge me $4,500 for a simple cremation. I found a much cheaper service with Alexa at Private Cremation Services at Station St Newtown. She is delightful, compassionate and professional.
Carolin Wenzel
June 2023Simplicity Funerals made all the arrangements for my mother's sudden death and funeral very easeful. They provided caring support all the way. Mum had pre-paid the funeral which also helped. Overall it was very cost effective, while still providing a dignified and beautiful service. They also provide you with an online memorial site which is fantastic.
