24.01.2022 Yes, I so agree!! A Funeral Service at home, is such a personal and intimate way to say goodbye to one you love!! This is how Denise and Alan chose to farewell their dad David; it was truly beautiful and I thank them for these kind words!... Dear Marg, Our sincerest of thanks for the beautiful commemoration service for our father David. Your words were so very true and you captured the person who dad was and how much he meant to us all.... Such a beautiful day and being in the garden at home where dad loved to sit and have a cuppa was truly lovely and fitting. Dad would have been very chuffed. Thank you for your kindness, Denise Alan and family. See more

22.01.2022 See you at Dawn! Lest We Forget!

22.01.2022 Just opened my email this afternoon to find this about Nick's Service yesterday.... Hi Marg, We want to say a big thank you for the funeral ceremony you hosted for Dad. You delivered the service according to our wishes, keeping things fuss free and with a happy tone, celebrating Dad’s life rather than in a mournful and sad way ... that would not have reflected who Dad was. When you were with the family at home, you dealt with us all in a caring and friendly way, and even though we did a fair bit of talking over one another, you impressively managed to listen to us all and noted down everything we talked about. You allowed us our time to think, and only added helpful suggestions here and there when we did not know what to do next. The whole process was made easy by you, and for that we say once again, thank you very much. We have no hesitation recommending your services to anyone, and wish you all the best. Love The Wings Family. See more

22.01.2022 Bubbles were the perfect way to end this celebration of John's life where more than 350 people across the generations gathered to pay tribute to him and to the wonderful legacy he has left for others to carry on.

22.01.2022 If your loved one enjoyed travelling, each year on their anniversary why not plan a trip to a favourite place of theirs or perhaps a country they expressed interest in visiting. The WORLD is your oyster! #celebratinglives

17.01.2022 Glitter coffins ACTUALLY exist This is how I’m going out

17.01.2022 Some Tips from Good Grief Ltd......for Coping with Grief at Christmas Christmas is a time of mixed feelings for those who are missing someone they love. As we gather with family and friends, the absence of a loved one may be felt even more intensely. Whether it’s a parent or partner who has left the family or a loved one who has died, you may be left feeling out of step with the jolliness of the tinsel and carols. ...Continue reading

17.01.2022 My sincere condolences to Marie and all the family on the sad loss of their much loved Bernie. May the road rise up to meet him and may his new bus route be smooth! Also my sincere thanks to Marie for these comments following Bernie's Funeral Service at Federation Chapel Lilydale ......... I just wanted to say thankyou so much for the service you led for my husband’s Funeral in January. You did a fantastic job! It was just the way we wanted it. ... Bernie was a simple man and the ceremony was just right for him and the way Bernie would have wanted it too. Everyone commented on how lovely the service was. Thankyou so much. Maree

16.01.2022 When I am sitting with family members, often amidst the tears and photos, my goal is to take the time to learn as much as possible about the person they love....

16.01.2022 "Marg, It was just what mum wanted thank you so much." Thanks Tracy for these comments about your mum Nola's farewell. Together once more with her much loved husband Ned...sharing a beer and rum chaser!!

16.01.2022 Hi Marg, I just wanted to say once again a big thankyou for the beautiful service you held for Mum last Wednesday. You made it very personal and, as much as a funeral can be, a very joyful event. regards Donna

15.01.2022 Two weeks ago I attended the funeral of a beautiful young wife and mother whose life was tragically cut short by cancer. And now so sad to see sad that another young family has lost their mum. In both instances, a fitting farewell is so important in providing some comfort and support to all who grieve their loss.

15.01.2022 Recently we celebrated Charlie's Life with a Service at Springvale Botanical Cemetery.#templetonfamilyfunerals When speaking to Alicia, who had recently lost her much loved lover, partner and best friend of more than 20 years, she said she felt Charlie’s Service was brilliant and told me that afterwards so many people said the Celebrant was fantastic that I eventually told them, if they were ever feeling really unwell I’ll take bookings for you.!! No greater complimen...t can be paid and I thank the family for trusting me with Charlie’s farewell. And to CharlieI trust that you are now happily enjoying many a Johnnie Walker Red Label, and a few wins, in your marvellous Casino in the Sky!!!

15.01.2022 Claudio's family chose the perfect venue to celebrate and farewell their treasured, cheeky and beloved family member.

14.01.2022 I am looking forward to being the Celebrant and sharing this very special occasion with so many families and friends. Come along ..it's not too late. And you may be surprised just how beautiful it is!

10.01.2022 A colourful farewell for a beautiful and talented lady! ......... Hi Marg, just wanted to say thanks so much again for the wonderful job you did for our beautiful Annie yesterday. We had so many lovely comments about the service & you played such an important role in making it so special. So THANK YOU! It was an absolute pleasure working with you & you made a really difficult time so much easier with your kindness & genuine compassion to us all. Much love Nic. Xx

10.01.2022 So good to be a part of this first online special night for Mothers.

10.01.2022 Thanks Sue for these kind words..... Marg, funerals are something that most of us dread but you, along with the girls from @templetonfamilyfunerals, managed to turn the day I was dreading into the most wonderful celebration of my husband’s life. Everyone who attended commented on the beautiful feel of the Memorial. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Sue ... March 21

10.01.2022 Thanks Richard for your kind words, following Carlene's Farewell. Recently my wife passed away after a long battle with illness. She donated her body to medical research and advised us that she did not wish to have any memorial service. As a family we felt the need to provide some closure for family and friends so, contrary to her wishes, contacted Marg and discussed organising a celebration of life. As the result of Marg’s caring and compassionate attitude we worked together to create a beautiful celebration of my wife’s life which was greatly appreciated and received very favourable comments from many of those who attended. These outcomes were doubtless the result of Marg’s meticulous planning and delivery of the more formal part of the celebration. Thanks Marg.

08.01.2022 Thank-you Owen Family.....You honoured him well!! "You can never truly prepare for losing a loved one, but Marg made the process of remembering Chris a special one. She delivered a beautiful service which reflected who he is, who he was and how he will be remembered. Thank you for allowing him to be alive in our hearts, for listening and for representing us in a time of need. Marg, We are very grateful for the service you provided. It felt like the perfect send -off, and truly represented the love and memories we share with him. So thank you for that. The Owen family."

08.01.2022 What do you want to happen to your body when you die

08.01.2022 A story to warm your heart! George did not have any living family. His final celebration was arranged by his neighbours....

08.01.2022 Totally agree, Mardo's was a great venue for Thelma's Farewell and thanks to Wendy for these comments about her Service: Marg, We were so happy with Mum’s service on Friday! And the way you handled ‘some interruptions’ was amazing! You’re a gorgeous person and we feel lucky that our paths crossed at this difficult time. You really helped us both to get through. Xx Wendy ... #TempletonFamilyFunerals

02.01.2022 What a lovely idea! Love to hear what you would request for your farewell?

02.01.2022 Saying goodbye to your precious little child is heart breaking! Last week two very distraught parents read this poem at the funeral of their 14 month old baby daughter who died suddenly from a mysterious illness. To them and all who are grieving the loss of a little one, I send my warmest thoughts. The Moment that you died... My heart was torn in two One side filled with heartache The other died with you I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep And take a walk down memory lane With tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is heartache That never goes away I hold you tightly within my heart And there you will remain See more

01.01.2022 A beautifully colourful farewell for a precious little boy!

01.01.2022 What A lovely way for her parents to honour the life and treasure the memories of their precious little one.

01.01.2022 As I join with families to honour and celebrate the life of a loved one, it is the persons kindness and willingness to listen and help others that is so often acknowledged as one of their greatest strengths and what they will be most remembered for. Nick's farewell at Bunurong yesterday was a perfect example of this.

01.01.2022 It’s important to acknowledge that grieving and the current circumstances that we find ourselves in today can be a time of increased stress. It can make coping ...with the day to day challenging and heighten interactions and situations. If you are feeling the effects of stress, we suggest five ways to deal with and reduce stress.
