About Us

Boland Funerals was established in 1962 when Eric Boland changed the way people thought about a funeral service. At the time, most funerals were conducted in private homes, but Sydney was becoming a city where people required quality service and a funeral services provider with integrity.

Eric Boland and Royce Gregory understood the need to relieve grieving families of the details of preparing their homes for the funeral and so many visitors. His funeral home would answer that need. On that premise, he founded what was then known as a "Funeral Home and Chapel" in Newtown.

Over the years we have had the privilege of serving many Heads of State, Members of the arts and entertainment world, and families from all walks of life. We cater for all backgrounds, honouring the deceased and comforting their families.

Service styles have varied from the most formal funeral mass to services featuring a lovely musical recital. Each service honours a unique individual who has lived life in his or her own style.

Eric Boland instilled in his staff an understanding of the value of courteous service and attention to detail, provided to all families. This integrity remains our core principle.
