Our Funeral Locations

Our beautiful on-site chapel can be used to host your loved one’s funeral service. The chapel has capacity for 50 guests and options for multimedia presentations. We can also provide live streaming if required. Our chapel at Compassionate Funerals has a ‘homely’ feel about it and is perfect for small and intimate funeral services.

Having no experience or dealings with a funeral home before, Compassionate Funerals was a stand out based on their Google reviews. I read every review and loved that they were a small Not for Profit company. What’s more, their reviews were outstanding. My family and I live on the south side of Brisbane and the trip to Brendale was well worth it.

The service, attention to detail and personal assistance provided by Kim & Emily could not have been better or more professional. They were very caring and compassionate and ensured all our wishes were met. Mum would have definitely approved and we would recommend them to anyone.

Thank you so much for taking such good care of our Mum, Maisie. Kim you made a sad ordeal so manageable for our family. Always so compassionate, respectful and thoughtful towards us the family, as well as Mum. I highly recommend using Compassionate Funerals as they make you feel like you are dealing with friends who really care! Thanks again to you all. Your service was greatly appreciated!

Thank you to Kim and her team for making such a difficult time a little easier. Compassionate funerals made my sisters send off beautiful and nothing was too much trouble. Genuine, caring and simply amazing service.

From the first inquiry phone call to my Dad's funeral. Kim and the team were wonderful. Down to earth, supportive and held our hand through this difficult process. My Dad's service was special and heartfelt, and the team did an exceptional job. Thank you!

The staff was very friendly, understanding and empathetic that went about doing what had to be done with a minimum of fuss and in a very professional way. Importantly they not only did everything that they promised to do but did things that weren't specifically promised. A wonderful service during a sensitive and susceptible time.

To Kim and your team. Thank you. You helped our family through an extremely difficult time to celebrate our father's life. You and your team were so lovely and always there when we needed them. Their patience and understanding was amazing. Everything was as perfect as it could be on the day we said goodbye to our father.

Thank you Kim. You and your team were extremely professional and compassionate during a difficult time for our family. The service was a beautiful celebration of our Father’s life. We are so very grateful to you and your team and thankful we chose Compassionate Funerals to take care of Dad.

On behalf of my family and myself, I would like to take the time to thank you, Kim on an outstanding job you and your team have done in taking care of all the arrangements for dad’s funeral. Stella was absolutely amazing on the lead up to the day and then joined by Keith to help guide us through this sad time. Thank you once again Compassionate Funerals.

Compassionate Funerals were outstanding during one of the hardest times for our family. They handled everything with care and professionalism, and helped us create a service that truly honoured our father. We’re very grateful for their support and compassion.

We’ll help you plan the perfect goodbye.
