About Us

Deciding how you would like to remember and honour your loved one is a personal choice. With so many options available, you can customise a fitting tribute that reflects their life and passions perfectly. Today, funeral and memorial services can be as varied as the individual they represent.

That’s why we take time with each family we serve to get to know them so that we can help them plan a fitting tribute to someone special in their life.

We understand the many concerns and needs after a death occurs, from filing newspaper and internet notices, organising a funeral venue and contacting the officiating clergy or celebrant, preparing your loved one to organising a personal time of remembrance and the funeral service.

We can assist you in these and many other aspects of “end of life” decisions that need to be made.

A caring family, caring for families.

Really appreciated the care shown by Julian and the team at Betts at a recent family bereavement. Arrangements were sorted smoothly accommodating our special requests, taking the strain of organising the event off the family. Thank you for the excellent service. Highly recommend.
