★★★★★ Jess at gillmans was extremely helpful,kind and considerate at a very difficult time formyself and my family,Chris the celebrant was very kind and considerate and made a hard day a little easier
★★★★★ This was the third time that I have used Gillmans funeral services and each time they have been amazing this last time I would like to personally thank Yam for all her efforts and help at a difficult time she was brilliant and also special thanks to the funeral director Darren for whom nothing was to much trouble a big thank you to you both and the team that helped you with my late uncles funeral
★★★★★ We have had our mother's funeral arrangements made by Gillmans recently.
The service we received was always professional, empathetic, kind & caring.
They made a very difficult time more easy to process & negotiate.
They worked with the florist Doris so all of the floral arrangement was taken care of behind the scenes.
★★★★★ My partner Paul passed away in November and his preferred choice of funeral parlour was Gillman in Mitcham. I was at my lowest ebb and really didn't know what to expect or what to do.
Steph was amazing! She was very compassionate, thoughtful and very understanding. She went through everything with me step by step.
She even suggested things I hadn't thought of. Myself and the family was very blessed to see Paul laid to rest before the funeral.
A member of Gillman came to my house 2 days before the funeral to reassure me and go through the day.
The whole day went to plan,I didn't have to think
★★★★★ Gilmans planned my father’s funeral and they were so helpful compassionate and loving. A big thanks to Suzy from mitcham Gilmans she was such a loving person and helping us every step of the way
