“Craig and his wonderful team were faultless in assisting us with funeral arrangements for my late husband. From our initial family meeting we felt at ease and nothing was too much trouble and every question resolved Through what has been the saddest time for us we have been supported 24/7 by the team at Murphys and cannot recommend their service highly enough. A special thanks to Grant who officiated on the day with warm and dignified professionalism.”

“Absolutely incredible for a family funeral for my father in law Vince Gavan just one year ago. Then a commemorative book of all the photos we shared arrived with much surprise and appreciation. Last week a bouquet of beautiful flowers arrived at our house to remember Vince at the one year anniversary of his passing. Thank you so much Murphy family and staff ……. Your thoughtfulness and kindness is beyond comparison 💕🙏🌷”
