Meet David

David has been a funeral director for almost 17 years, and a location manager for 7.

What do you like about being a funeral arranger?
The thing I love most about being a funeral director, is being able to create and assist in establishing a vision to say farewell to someone when they pass.

“A lot of families wish to have a service as a celebration of life. I like to find out what the individual loved most and incorporate it as much as we can into the service, so when people attend one of our services, they can honestly say... that was a true reflection of the individual that passed.”

Do you speak any other languages?
Yes, Italian.

What would you like to have included at your funeral?
If I could have anything at my funeral it would be, a few slow cooked BBQ smokers on the go with my favourite music playing in the background and everyone just having a nice get together and celebrating.

A few years ago, I heard a song called “Run Run Run” by Junge Junge whist driving throughout the crazy roads of Italy; it kept me relaxed. I would like to have this play at my funeral because it brings a smile to my face every time I hear it and also reminds me of some amazing memories from that trip.

What makes Simplicity Ballarat, special?
Our friendly team, our community and close network we each have around town make us special.

We also have an amazing, refreshed facility with spacious rooms and state of the art equipment to have a funeral setting run seamlessly. With the building being established in the late 19th century we have created a space where old meets new, original façade with a new inviting interior.
