Supporting our community for over 130 years

The Parsons family association with the Illawarra began on April 24, 1839 when Matthew and Puah Parsons arrived in Wollongong by horse and dray via Mount Keira Road. Today, Alan Parsons, Funeral Director, Managing Director and Chief Car Washer with Parsons Funerals follows in the business started by his great grandfather over 130 years ago. One of his g

reatest rewards today is to be joined in the business by his son Anthony, the fifth generation of Parsons Funeral Directors. "The horse and carriage have gone but the one constant we are dedicated to upholding is to remain a local Illawarra family owned and 100 per cent Australian owned and operated company," Alan said. Alan believes that doing this ensures they can continue the family legacy in contributing to and supporting the economy, growth and stability of our beautiful Illawarra.

For many, Mother’s Day is a time of celebration. For others, it can be a day of reflection, remembrance, and missing someone deeply.

Today, we’re thinking of all mothers, grandmothers, mother figures, and families carrying both love and loss. 💖

A quick safety reminder! Cyber fraud is real, and scammers can impersonate trusted organisations using email, text messages and links. These scams can target families during or after the loss of a loved one, sometimes even years later. Always question any unexpected email, SMS or phone calls, even if it claims to be from an organisation you’ve dealt with before.

Never click on links in emails or text messages claiming to be from us if you are not expecting them. We do not use SMS for payment links, and our emails always encourage you to call us to verify details before paying.

If you’re unsure, always call us using our usual office telephone number. Our friendly team are here to help. A quick call can prevent a costly mistake.

Meet Simone 🩵

Simone is a valued member of our Customer Service and Administration team, where she plays an important role in coordinating and organising services for families after they’ve met with one of our directors. She works closely with the wider team to ensure every detail is thoughtfully arranged, helping the process run as smoothly as possible.

What Simone enjoys most about her role is being able to support families and provide reassurance during what can be a challenging and emotional time. She takes pride in knowing her work helps ease some of the pressure for families, allowing them to focus on what matters most.

Outside of work, Simone enjoys going for walks, unwinding, and spending time relaxing with family and friends.

We’re very grateful to have Simone as part of the H.Parsons team.
