What is a Funeral Support Manager?

In Sydney, Victoria Cross Funerals provide a
Funeral Support Manager with all our services.

In times of loss, Victoria Cross Funerals in Sydney understands that when the weight of grief bears heavily upon our hearts, having the right support can make an immeasurable difference.

With over 15 years of experience in the industry, Victoria Cross Funerals—a funeral home based in Sydney, serving families Australia-wide and internationally—recognised the need to offer care that genuinely supports families. Owners Victoria and Nicole, deeply influenced by their Greek upbringing and driven by the values of compassion, warmth, and dignity, introduced the role of the Funeral Support Manager to provide a more personalised and comforting experience.

In many funeral homes, families often have to interact with multiple people, from the initial contact to planning, logistics on the day of the funeral, and post-funeral requirements, like collecting the ashes.

Nicole and Victoria are your Funeral Support Managers here to guide you practically and emotionally through the process.

Victoria Cross Funerals understands that during such delicate times, having only one dedicated person to connect with can make the process less overwhelming and more supportive.

All services provided by Victoria Cross Funerals come with a Funeral Support Manager, allowing families to share the story of their loved one, their needs, and their grief only once.

I cannot recommend Victoria Cross Funerals enough. We were completely overwhelmed with my mothers late passing and Nicole, Victoria and the whole team were incredibly supportive and guided us through the whole process. They were extremely caring and genuine.

This is not just a business, they care a lot and have great compassion for their clients at a time when it is needed most.. we can’t thank them enough, the celebration of my mother’s life could not have run smoother. Thankyou so very much for your amazing service!

Victoria and her colleagues did a wonderful job caring for my late Father. During this time of mourning and loss, when I felt lost and overwhelmed, Victoria was an invaluable support, guiding us through every step of the process. The attention to detail, the dignity, and the respect they all showed my Dad were truly exceptional. Everything was handled with the utmost care and consideration.

Thanks to Victoria the process of saying goodbye to my Father was peaceful, the support was invaluable, and it helped our family navigate this challenging time with a sense of peace.

I will never forget the comfort you provided to our family during our time of need.

Thank you
