What families say
Lauren
Aug 2025I chose Chapter House Funerals for my mother's memorial service because I wanted something different and I couldn't face walking into a traditional funeral home to make arrangements. Instead, I called Troy and decided on a small, simple and elegant celebration of her life. We planned everything by phone & email. Wooling Hill Memorial Estate is the perfect final resting place for both of my parents and will be a joy to visit with family for years to come. Troy, Liddy and our beautiful celebrant, Erin, made everything possible and honestly the hardest part was the initial phone call. This team is truly special and I'm forever grateful.

Sept 2024We had the unfortunate need to have two services at Wooling Hill and we cannot be more grateful for the assistance and support provided by Troy and the Chapter House team. Not a single request was too hard & Troy was patient with us whilst we planned everything and met every question with the utmost care and compassion. Erin provided such beautiful words to memorialise our wonderful mother & even helped to incorporate some funny moments. Whilst it hurts to loose those we love, having the services at Chapter House was a fantastic way to remember our loved ones. The grounds are beautiful and we will be forever grateful we came across such a special place to remember Mum & Grandma.

June 2024I simply can't recommend Chapter House highly enough. When my Father passed last year, my family and I were beyond relieved to have Troy and his team handling the funeral for us. From the moment we met with Troy, we knew that we were in good hands. His knowledge, understanding, compassion and particularly the attention to detail was incredible. Through the entire process we found everything was handled perfectly, and with the sincerity that the occasion required. I am incredibly grateful to Troy for all that he did for me and my family. An impeccable service.

June 2024Our family were extremely pleased with the support and attention to detail we experienced on the loss of our precious mum. Information about what we could expect, and follow through was exceptional. All our requests were met in a timely way with Troy offering advice and suggestions to help us navigate each stage. Wooling Hill setting is so beautiful, restful and calming. Our service in the chapel, our memory walk through the garden and gorgeous memorial booklet were all perfect. Erin, our celebrant was the perfect choice as recommended by Troy. Her compassion, and care both prior to and on the day was outstanding. We were so impressed with the catering choices we selected. Absolutely first class presentation, quality and variety. Our family has very beautiful memories of a very lovely day to celebrate our wonderful mum.

Dec 2024I highly recommend Troy and his team at Chapter House Funerals. His customer service and support in helping me with the funeral arrangements of my wife was seamless and of high quality. I felt immediate trust for Troy. His facility at Wooling Hill Memorial Estate is stunning, beautiful and perfect if you are looking for an outdoor setting in a nice garden. Troy also supported me though the passing of my beloved dog, as they also cater for pets as well as people.
