State of Grace was founded by Deb Cairns and Fran Reilly - two women who are passionate about enabling families to personally care for and make specific home-based funeral arrangements for their loved ones. We also believe in the principles of sustainability and that the processes should be as natural as possible. However, we can also provide you with a more traditional approach should that be your preferred option.

Sadness and grief are natural and inevitable states and everyone needs to express their feelings of loss in their own way. Our experience has shown us that for many people, participating or assisting with the funeral arrangements has a powerful therapeutic effect. The ability to provide this one last act of love seems to help bring about closure and some measure of peace.

At all times, our focus is on you and your loved ones. We will always listen to your wishes, acknowledge individuality and respect cultural and spiritual beliefs. Our commitment to you is to respect the person who has gone and to support and nurture those left behind.
