Meet Jo

What do you enjoy about your job? 
It is a privilege to be able to guide and support families during one of their most challenging times. Connecting with them and helping to plan a service to celebrate the life of their loved one. Kindness and understanding are the key.

How long have you worked in the funeral industry?  
I have worked in the industry since 2007 and have been an arranger for 16 years.

Forming connections with families and assisting them with kindness is important to me.

What do you love about the community your funeral home is in
Chelmer is close to the city and is bound by the Brisbane River. The houses are beautiful Queenslander style, and the area has many old trees and parks.

What do you enjoy in your spare time? 
I enjoy going to the movies, working with mosaics, gardening, drawing, and spending time with family and close friends. I have an interest in saving Koalas and work to help sick or injured Koalas survive.

Are there any special community groups you work with or support? 
I support the RSPCA and have worked with the Salvation Army and the CWA. Along with my fellow colleagues at White Lady Funerals we offer support and guidance to nursing homes and other groups in need.

Honoured to stand beside you  
as you say farewell

The death of a loved one is always very difficult. In our case it was our mother's farewell that we had to plan. White Lady Funerals helped us say farewell to our mother in the most caring and beautiful way. Their efficiency and empathy were the most outstanding features of their service. If it is called a recommendation for these events, then I would highly recommend that you do yourselves a favor and contact White Lady Funerals to help you through these very emotional and difficult times.
