In-house funeral director for the Brisbane Broncos

In-house Funeral Director for the Brisbane Broncos
Because of our long association with the players, staff and members of the Broncos Football Club, Brisbane Broncos supports First Forest Funerals to provide in-house funeral services for Broncos Leagues members and all Broncos fans.  

For many years John was on the coaching staff of the Brisbane Broncos at the invitation of head coach Wayne Bennett.  He has had a long association with players and the Club and has been involved with many family funerals of players and members. 

At the Broncos, we see ourselves as members of a larger family.  When the worst happens most people don’t know who to go too, or what to do.  In our hour of need, we’d rather have ‘one of us’ caring for our loved one rather than a stranger from some funeral company.  The Club offers this service in a genuine attempt to support our families.  By offering our own in-house funeral service, administered by ‘one of our own’, Brisbane Broncos is able to reach out and support our Members and their families. The comfort and solace this provides to our members is why the Brisbane Broncos extend this important initiative to their family.

Of course, we are happy to serve not only our own members, but all families and supporters of the wider Broncos Community. 

Full Funeral Service:  Our full service is comparable with that provided by any other funeral operator.  Because we don’t have the overheads of other large companies, we are able to offer the same service often at a lower cost.  Along with compassionate professionalism, you can be assured of receiving value and that is all any of us want.  We promise to match any bona fide price for a comparable service – and that ensures you receive great value.

Broncos Leagues Club:  Another benefit of using First Forest Funerals as supported by the Brisbane Broncos is the great venue on offer at the Broncos Leagues Club after the funeral.  The ‘wake’ is an important part of the honouring process and what better surrounds to do this than our own beloved Leagues Club.  We are able to offer different packages to suit your requirements.  Just contact our Functions Manager Julie Vanderwall on 3858 9013 to plan a great celebration in honour of your loved one.
