Honour your loved one with a funeral service that reflects their beliefs, traditions and values.
There’s no single way to say goodbye. We’ll work closely with you to arrange a service that reflects your loved one’s life, beliefs and traditions.
Our team has experience supporting families from a wide range of faiths and traditions, including Christian, Catholic, Anglican and other communities across Hobart.
Hobart is home to people from many different backgrounds. We’ll help you arrange a service that honours the customs, rituals and traditions that are important to you and your family.
From the choice of venue to music, readings and meaningful rituals, every detail can be shaped around your loved one’s story and the traditions that matter most.
Planning a funeral can feel complex, especially when cultural or religious traditions are involved. We’re here to guide you through each step, taking care of the practical details so you can focus on what matters most.

We would recommend Turnbull Funerals because of the support given at a very emotional time for our family.
Because of their experience the staff were able to assist us in organising the perfect service to suit the wishes of our loved one.
Jenny was a pleasure to deal with and guided me through the process at a really emotional and stressful time.
She was caring and supportive throughout which made the whole process easier to manage. Thank you Jenny!
The professionalism and kindness of the staff.
Their willingness to provide assistance and accommodate our wishes. They were very understanding and appreciated the kind of funeral we wanted to have.
A funeral usually takes place within days or weeks of a death and often includes a burial or cremation as part of the service. A memorial service is held after burial or cremation has occurred and may take place weeks or months later. Both provide meaningful opportunities to gather, reflect and honour a life.
There's no need to rush. We'll guide you through each step at a pace that feels comfortable, helping with the immediate essentials while giving you the time and space to make thoughtful decisions about the service itself.
Our caring team works closely with families to understand their needs and wishes. We also have great working relationships with local faith leaders, and will do the necessary research and planning to ensure the funeral is carried out according to your beliefs and customs.
