Meet our team

Simplicity is a local, family-owned funeral home with a team who truly cares. With years of experience behind us, we know how to gently guide families through the funeral process to create funerals that feel personal and meaningful. Our team are experts in what we do, but more than that, we’re people who understand just how important it is to feel supported during a tough time.

We’re proud to work with families in our community, and we treat every one like we would our own — with honesty, kindness, and respect. Being there for people when they need it most is something we never take for granted. It’s a privilege to help you say goodbye in a way that feels right for you.
