Testimonials

“From the first phone call to Fred, he assured us we didn’t have to worry about anything and then his visit to our home everything was taken care of from the transportation of the body, a beautiful service delivered by Shirley, music, programs, CD images, flowers and catering of food. It was so much more satisfying dealing with local people you know and wouldn’t have changed anything.”

“Childers Woodgate Funeral Services provided exceptional service to our family at our time of need. Fred and Shirley and their staff were dedicated, compassionate, and sensitive to our needs. They exceeded all of our expectations in terms of quality, efficiency, and attention to detail. It is such a distressing time for loved ones, and using Childers Woodgate Funeral Services went a very long way to alleviating a lot of the usual pressures on our family members. This meant we were able to focus on honouring our wife and mother, and grieve her loss, whilst Shirley and Fred took care of everything else. Our sincerest thanks to them and their staff.”

“My late Husband’s funeral service was conducted in an extremely professional, thoughtful and sincere manner. I particularly liked the way Shirley referred to her relationship with our family in her introduction.”

“Childers Woodgate Funeral Services provided not only a very professional, but very friendly service for our family. It was comforting to be able to trust that someone was arranging and organizing such a public occasion, when all you felt you wanted to do was retreat – yet a proud and joyous experience to commemorate someone we love.”

I am still telling my friends how quickly I was able to arrange the funeral service with Fred and so easy. Within a couple of hours of my brother, Hedley, dying on 30 September, Fred had arranged a service, removal of the body and refreshments after the service at 10 am on 1 October at Gunther Village Nursing Home, Gayndah, with the approval of the Manager, Bruce. A special thanks to Gaye Tyler as well.

On behalf of our family I would like to thank you and your team for taking care of Mum and providing a funeral that Mum would have thought was well done.

The family wish to thank you for the lovely job you did for us last week. It was a whole lot easier working with someone we knew so well and felt so comfortable with.

Fred, Shirley and Staff provided a very caring and professional service. I would recommend Childers Woodgate Funeral Services to everyone.

Thank you for your kind card and note which you recently sent. And once again, thank you for the service you gave and the care you showed with the passing of my mother last year.

Thank you for making this difficult time special as we said goodbye to our beloved Wife, Mother and Grandmother. Your wonderful management of the service and kindness was greatly appreciated and will always be remembered .
