Our History

When we first began caring for families, funerals were all very similar – because that was how people wanted to say goodbye.

Today, each funeral goodbye is as different as the person it is for, and as different as the loved ones left behind.

Many people today are realising that the emotions of a funeral can stand side-by-side with a celebration of life – and that is what we specialise in.

From our beginnings in 1882, we are now a network of over 40 funeral homes; each one providing all the care and guidance a family needs to plan a funeral that meets their needs and celebrates the life of someone special to them

Our funeral homes have come together over the years, combining some NSW and the ACT's most well-regarded names in funeral services. This includes:

Guardian Funerals is now one of this state's premier contemporary funeral companies. Guardian's funeral directors know that each funeral is unique and that a funeral that has been personalised to the memories of the deceased, as well as to the needs of the family, is a funeral that will be remembered for years to come. Guardian's funeral directors will therefore work beside you to include special themes in the ceremony that reflect the life of the person you are honouring.

Guardian's experience, their understanding of the funeral needs of all of Sydney's cultural groups and of modern funeral practices means they will be able to assist you with your arrangements.

Once you come in to one of Guardian Funerals conveniently located funeral homes, their care and experience will be available to you. They will offer you the time you need to have all your questions answered and for you to think about all of your choices so that Guardian can make the funeral you are arranging one that everyone will remember.
