Who We Are - Timmins Funerals

Our history is important to us

Our family has long been associated with the funeral industry. My late father first started in Sydney’s funeral industry in 1950. In those days it was considered a “calling” – a term long since forgotten in today’s commercial world.

Since that time we have fulfilled our commitment to Sydney’s families with pride – in the past 65 years we’ve been honoured to serve over 20,000 families with powerful and uplifting celebrations of life.

Located in historic Norfolk House (1841), Parramatta, our headquarters allows us to serve the community with outstanding funeral services. We’re proud to now offer our personal service at 4 offices across Sydney – Parramatta, Castle Hill, Liverpool and Sydney City.

Experience and commitment

We believe we have a duty to provide as much help, understanding and support as possible to get you through this difficult time.

It’s important to us that we help you plan a funeral you can look back on with satisfaction, that you farewelled the one who has passed with love, joy and respect. Let us help you create memories which will be cherished for years to come.

"On behalf of our Aunt Vera's extended family we would like to express our thanks for all your assistance in making this sad occasion pass with minimal stress and maximum professionalism. Vera deserved the dignity and respect shown on that day and we are all so grateful to you. Should the occasion arise we will have no hesitation recommending your services. Your good care helped ease our pain on that very sad day."

Lesley

"To the operations manager Timmins Funerals, Yesterday I attended workmate Don's funeral service conducted by your group. What a respectful and comforting experience it was for me- from the initial greeting at the door, to the sensitive and useful (again) thoughts of the celebrant, finishing with your conductors kind strength. Thank you"

Michael

" I would like to thank your for organising of mum's service. It all went very smoothly which is actually what is needed at such a difficult time for the family. Your professionalism and attention to detail was excellent. The printing of the service was lovely. The addition of the photo of the Hawkesbury River made it more special."

Janene

"Thanks so much for the brilliant job you and your men did for Mollie. We all felt it was a perfect burial for her and appreciate your tact, warmth and generosity."
