What families say
Harriet Fitzpatrick
Mar 2026A heartfelt thanks to Jerry and his team for a truly beautiful respectful and highly professional funeral for our brother Tony Fitzpatrick in Penrith this week. Tony's family in Ireland were overwhelmed as they watched the funeral/buriel live stream and felt very much part of the entire service. From beginig to end, an outstanding service. Can't speak highly enough. Thank you from the Fitzpatrick family both in Ireland and Australia.

Aug 2024My experience with Michael and Jerry at Bowden Family Funerals was nothing short of amazing. They held a beautiful service for my 10 day old daughter, and they showed they truly care throughout the whole process. They made the planning of the funeral seamless. I struggled finding a poem and looking through photos to send them, but I was never pressured or rushed to send these. They showed an utmost respect towards my beautiful daughter (which was very evident throughout the planning process), and my family and friends at the funeral. They also made it financially possible for us to give her the most beautiful send off. I have absolutely no faults for them, and the service went perfectly smooth. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for treating my girl with respect, giving her the most beautiful send off and truly caring. ❤️

Oct 2025We just recently used Bowden to farewell our Darling Dad Robin. They were warm, genuine and understanding to deal with throughout the whole process. A real family business. The day was a beautiful tribute to Dad, and I cant recommend them highly enough for people to use to farewell their loved ones. Regards Alex

Aug 2025Bowden Family Funerals have supported our family through the loss of both my grandparents—most recently, my 94-year-old grandfather. From the very first call, their team made everything so easy for us during an incredibly difficult time. Nothing was ever too much trouble; every detail was handled with genuine care, patience, and respect. What really stood out to me was the consistency of their service—whether it was during the challenges of the covid period or just this week, their compassion and professionalism never wavered. I truly felt that they went above and beyond, and their kindness made a world of difference to our family. Thank you, Bowden Family Funerals, for making such a hard time a little easier and for treating our loved ones with the utmost dignity.
