Dec 2025I would like to take this opportunity to thank Alison and her wonderful team at Somerville Funerals in Southport. After meeting with Alison I was so relieved as every detail of the service arrangements was made available to me on the day of the appointment and her manner was one of sincere comfort and professionalism. It is a really overwhelming time, I truly felt as if I had a guardian angel with Alison and her team as they are so dedicated to honouring your wishes with the highest regard for your cherished memories. I would highly recommend the beautiful team at Somerville Funerals, they are a great company of sincere generous people. Thank you for all you created. I am truly grateful

Sept 2025I cannot recommend Somerville Funerals highly enough. My sister in law passed away while living on the Gold Coast and as we live in NSW’s we were dreading the thought of trying to arrange her funeral remotely. The nursing home recommended Somerville to us from past dealings and it proved to be excellent advice. From the first contact with Russ to the service and afterwards Somerville have gone above and beyond. Russ was very supportive and his advice and help in making the 100 and 1 decisions needed in every funeral was outstanding. The celebrant he recommended was wonderful and the service she gave was appreciated by all who attended. All the staff at the service were great and very professional in their care and compassion. Everyone who attended remarked afterwards how good the service was and what a great celebration of my sister in law’s life it was. Again many thanks to Russ and the wonderful staff at Somerville for making a very difficult time in our lives so much easier.

Dec 2025From the very first contact, the care and compassion shown by the entire team at Somerville funerals were truly exceptional, especially Amanda, who was our main point of contact during an incredibly difficult time. She provided not only professional guidance but genuine emotional support, ensuring that every detail was handled with dignity, respect and sensitivity. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal. Amanda took the time to listen understand our wishes and gently guided us every step with patience and kindness. What set Somerville Funerals apart was their willingness to go the extra mile in every possible way Amanda consistently anticipated our needs, accommodated special requests, and offered reassurance at exactly the right moments. Her attention to detail, calm presence, and thoughtful communication brought great comfort when we needed at most. It was clear there was a deep level of care for the families they serve and that empathy made all the difference. We felt supported throughout the entire process, knowing our loved one was in safe and respectful hands We are profoundly grateful for the compassion professionalism and care to our family and we would wholeheartedly recommend Somerville Funerals to anyone needing support during such a difficult time Rob Fuller and family
