He made what was one of the worst time of our lives, such a smooth process.  He was beyond helpful, kind, knowledgeable.  Just an all round nice human that made things easier for us.  The funeral was beautiful.  We had an amazing day celebrating, all because we could relax because I knew everything was under control because of Theodore.  Thank you Theodore, I am forever grateful for your kindness and help.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family can’t thank Theodore from Agape Funerals enough for his care and support over the last few weeks. From the first phone call at the hospital, to making sure everything was in order at the wake, Theodore was kind, thoughtful, gentle and had wonderful attention to detail, especially for all of the Greek traditions that were important to our family. He guided us through every step in the process transparently and slowly and made us feel so supported at a time when we felt so lost, muddled and sad. We could tell that Theodore cared very deeply about his profession and genuinely wanted to make sure we were looked after during our time of grief. We will be forever grateful.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Theodore, thank you for everything you did for our family following the loss of our father. We first met with you several years before Dad’s passing to pre-arrange his funeral, and from that very first meeting you were kind, professional, and genuinely caring. When the time came, you guided us through every step of the process with patience, compassion, and understanding, making a very difficult time much more manageable. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and you were always available to answer our questions and provide support when we needed it most. We are so grateful to you and your team for the care, dignity, and respect you showed Dad and our family. We couldn’t fault the service provided and would highly recommend Agape Funerals to anyone looking for compassionate and professional funeral services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you, thank you, thank you Theo! I honestly don’t know how we would have gotten through my grandmother’s funeral without you!!. From start to finish, you were just so kind, incredibly patient and considerate. We highly recommend Agape Funerals. They are professional, compassionate, understanding and respectful! What really stood out was how Theo made himself available to us. It felt personal. Like he was part of the family and never like a professional service/transaction. Any time we had a worry or a random question, he was right there to help. He had this way of making everything feel completely manageable and stress-free, even when we had specific requests that might have felt like a lot to anyone else. He was so accommodating and never made us feel like we were a bother. Theo, you took what could have been a really overwhelming process and made it feel seamless and calm. On behalf of my family, we can’t thank you enough for the genuine care you showed our family and for making sure my yiayia was looked after with such dignity. Thank you for making a truly difficult time much easier for us all." Rebecca

From the very first phonecall I made I was immediately made to feel at ease, the process was clearly outlined and I felt resuusured.Theodore was very patient. supportive and compassionate and his sincerity and genuine care was obvious. He understood exactly what my auntie wanted for her service, and he and Vana supported us and kept us informed through the entire process. They were exceptional from beginning to end, the process was faultless and I cannot thank them enough, they took such great care of me and my family. I would highly recommend Agape Funerals. Chris A
