Welcome to William Cole Funerals.
We offer everything you need to celebrate and farewell your loved one.
COVID-19 Update
We, at William Cole Funerals, are acutely aware that this is an incredibly challenging and difficult time for everyone. We thank you for your kindness and understanding with the ongoing changes to funeral services.
First and foremost, our number one priority is the health, safety and wellbeing of the families we assist and our William Cole Funerals team.
We have always strived for excellence in funeral service and we continue with our commitment to helping families farewell their loved ones with respect and dignity.
In this ever changing environment we are keeping up to date with current advice and regulations passed down from the Government.
Our Services
Planning a funeral can be an overwhelming and emotionally draining task – particularly at a time when you’re already dealing with the loss of someone dear to you. But we’re here to help. Just say the word and we’ll take on as much – or as little – of the responsibility of planning the funeral as you’d like us to.
Green Funerals
A ‘green’ funeral is a wonderful way to celebrate a love of nature. At William Cole Funerals, we offer a range of green options, including cardboard and wicker caskets and coffins, bush burials or biodegradable urns.
A Woman’s Touch
At William Cole we also offer funeral services exclusively managed by our caring and compassionate team of female Funeral Directors. Maybe you feel more comfortable talking with a woman, maybe your loved one would have preferred a woman’s touch, whatever the reason we will move mountains to ensure this important day runs exactly as you desire.
At William Cole Funerals, we do things your way. We don’t believe in only offering generic funeral services that say little about the person they celebrate. We prefer to plan the funeral around the life that they lived.
The right funeral will celebrate the things that made your loved one so special. Their sense of humour. Their quirks. A love of gardening. Their beloved ’66 Mercedes. Their dedication to family. Their childhood. Their culture. Their views on life and what comes after. The big things, the small things – they all come together to paint a portrait of the person.
You knew them best, so tell us all about them, and together, we’ll plan a funeral that feels right – a funeral that feels like them. Let’s talk.
Helping your family comes naturally to us.
“A beautiful and touching service. William Cole Funerals were able to incorporate dad’s old ute, just the way he would have wanted.”

“The prepaid funeral plan allowed us to grieve in our own time, without worrying about the financial burden.”

We’ve invested so much of ourselves into what we do that the business and our family are, to a large extent, one and the same thing. So perhaps it’s not surprising that we feel a huge sense of pride in our work and how we can provide comfort to you as you experience such life-changing sorrow.
Because as a family ourselves, helping your family comes naturally to us.
