Almost 100 years of experience has taught us that saying goodbye means something different to everyone. Our role is to bring families, friends and communities together for a celebration of life that reflects their culture and beliefs.
Our services are designed to offer comfort, support and respect, as we guide families through every stage of the funeral planning process, creating a legacy that lasts well beyond the funeral. We also tailor our offering to include innovative solutions and contemporary ideas that are true to the life that was lived.
At Somerville Funerals, it’s our goal to make this process feel smooth and supportive. We have funeral directors on call 24/7 on 1800 621 234 to see how we may be able to assist you with the funeral arrangements.
With professional care from our highly trained staff, we will look after:
- Transfer of your loved one into our care
- Documentation and certificates
- Arranging the funeral and burial or cremation
Multicultural funeral services
Somerville Funerals brings decades of specialized experience to honouring the diverse tapestry of our community. We understand that every culture holds unique traditions that provide comfort during times of loss, and our team is highly trained and dedicated to facilitating these customs with the highest level of respect and care.
Whether we are facilitating the ritual preparations for a Sikh and Hindu service, or the quiet reverence of a Baha’i burial, or a Pacific Islander celebration of life, we act in kindness and grace. From facilitating traditional chanting, incense rituals and burning of offerings in a Buddhist and Taoist service, to coordination of Russian, Serbian and Greek Orthodox liturgies, as well as various Christian denomination services, our funeral directors handle every detail with cultural sensitivity, ensuring your loved one is honoured exactly according to your heritage.
