Celebrating a life well lived.

At North East Funerals, we believe every farewell should feel as unique as the person it honours.

For one recent family, that meant celebrating their loved one’s passion for vintage cars, surrounded by the natural beauty of Harrietville, a place close to their heart.

We’re proud to serve families right across North East Victoria, helping them say goodbye in the places and ways that hold the most meaning.
Wherever your memories live, we’ll meet you there.

Sharing news of a loved one’s passing can be one of the hardest parts of saying goodbye. 💜

At North East Funerals, we can help ease that burden by preparing and posting funeral notices, online tributes, and social media announcements, shared thoughtfully and in a way that feels right for you and your family.

It’s just one of the many ways we’re here to support you through this time, with care, understanding and compassion.

If you’d like assistance in sharing the details of a service, contact our team, we are here to help guide you through every step: https://loom.ly/UPqIc60

Thinking about your funeral wishes can feel like a big task, but starting the conversation early can bring real peace of mind for you and your family. 💜

If you’re not sure where to begin, here are three things to consider when pre-planning your funeral:
1️⃣ Burial or cremation – Which feels most meaningful or aligns with your values?
2️⃣ Faith-based or civil service – Would you like your farewell to reflect spiritual traditions or be a personal celebration of life?
3️⃣ Who will lead your service – Is there someone special you’d like to officiate or speak on your behalf?

Taking time to think about these choices now helps ensure your farewell truly reflects you, and makes things a little easier for those you love.

💜 We’re always happy to have a conversation about where to get started.

For Chris, connection is everything. Whether it’s with the people he works alongside, the families he supports, or the community he calls home. 💜

Outside of work, you’ll often find Chris exploring the North East bushland, 4-wheel driving or hiking with his daughters to spots like Pangerang Lookout. Those quiet moments outdoors reflect what matters most to him: family, community, and care for the world around us.

It’s this same calm, grounded energy that Chris brings to his role as Care Consultant and Mortuary Technician at North East Funerals. From supporting families who wish to be involved in after-care, to ensuring each person is treated with dignity and compassion, Chris approaches his work with empathy and respect. He’s also often the friendly face behind the camera, helping loved ones from afar stay connected during funeral services.

As Chris says, “I’m glad I ended up at North East Funerals. We care for our clients from beginning to end — and most importantly, the way the family wants.”

We’re so grateful for the quiet strength, warmth, and sense of community Chris brings, both on and off the clock. 🌿
