Meet Barbara
Barbara has been a funeral arranger for 18 years.
"I love helping families through what is probably one of the most difficult times in their life, and to be ‘thanked’ afterwards is the most rewarding feeling.”
What do you like about being a funeral arranger?
I love coming to work every day to make a difference in somebody’s life. I also have the added benefit of working alongside my amazing colleagues.
What do you enjoy doing in your spare times?
I do love to cook, but I am very traditional and just love good basic home cooking and on the weekends I enjoy some gardening. My Husband and I love to travel, not only overseas but also seeing this beautiful country of ours and all that it has to offer.
What makes Simplicity Funerals special?
It’s in our name – Simplicity Funerals. We offer a simple planning process although listen to what the families want and add those special touches to ensure a memorable farewell.
A big thank you to Barbara for her professionalism and tender care that she showed to all of our family and friends at the memorial for my father. During the organisation of dad's funeral, Barbara was very approachable, understanding and accommodating. She saw to every small detail, ensured everything ran smoothly, and her empathy to family and friends was outstanding. I cannot recommend Simplicity Funeral services highly enough. Thank you Barbara!
