Reviews
Thoughtful, professional and dignified. We are extremely grateful for their caring assistance during a very difficult situation.
Alexander was a wonderful director for my mother's funeral service. He was responsive, available, he listened to our family, and he made gentle suggestions and respected all of our decisions. We felt very cared for, and our visiting family members felt welcomed. The service was meaningful and was a wonderful time of connection...we were able to mourn our mother together and in a way that felt so fitting to her. Alexander never made us feel rushed or pressured into doing anything we didn't want. The facilities felt dignified and comfortable. We are so appreciative to Alexander and everyone from Gawler's who helped us. Thank you.
