We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Indren and the entire team for conducting my father’s final rites with such care and professionalism. All logistics were handled smoothly, and the team respected our instructions on how my father should be presented at his funeral with great attention to detail. Everything was managed seamlessly, without any hiccups, which gave our family much peace of mind during a very difficult time. A special thank you goes to Joel for his prompt responses, patient coordination, and support in accommodating multiple last-minute requests. We truly appreciate that he even checked in after the funeral to ensure everything was in order. Room for improvement would be in the ritual portion and the itinerary for the days, which could be more detailed and regularly updated to keep the family informed. Overall we are satisfied with your service and support. Thank you Singapore casket 🙏

A huge thank you to Ms. Ellaine Chai and her team. To mention Anthony, Aru,Joshua, TP, Jaya, KK, As our case was extra special, no embalming involved, they did their best for the family to let us view him one last time before sealing the casket. Everything was handled smoothly and with care, and it really helped take a load off our minds during a tough time. The staff were respectful, patient, and professional throughout, Especially Ms. Ellaine, the Funeral director who made sure everything runs smoothly from start to end. I even had to call her in the middle of the night and that she was prompt in attending the issue. The wake was held at our residence and that they set it up beautifully. I know my husband would have been proud of what the team has done. It felt like he was already in paradise. Flowers filled our house until the garage. We truly appreciate the support and service Ms Ellaine, Anthony and her team have provided.

From the very beginning, she was respectful, patient, and incredibly well-organized.

We would like to express our sincere appreciation for the excellent service and care provided by Singapore Casket. We wish to especially commend CYRUS KOH for his professionalism and support. He was highly knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything to us clearly and patiently. When we were uncertain about some decisions, he provided thoughtful recommendations that ultimately worked out very well for us. Throughout the three days, he regularly checked on us, making sure everything was alright and that we were coping. My family and I are deeply grateful for the compassion and care shown to us during this difficult time. Here are some additional comments from my family members. The Regency Room exceeded our expectations. Its soothing pastel-coloured interior created a dignified and comforting environment for visitors to pay their respects. Many guests felt at ease and stayed longer to spend time with the family. The complimentary hot drinks machine and box of cakes were thoughtful gestures that were very much appreciated. The provision of a safe for condolence monetary gifts was also practical and reassuring. Additional chairs were promptly arranged upon request for the Memorial Service. The transition to Mandai Crematorium was smooth and well-coordinated. The staff, led by Aru, guided us professionally through every stage — from the photo-taking session before departure to the final service and cremation. The ash scattering session at the Garden of Peace was also conducted seamlessly, with clear guidance from Ben. We are grateful for the professionalism and care shown throughout.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does Farewell Funerals charge?›
Funeral service costs in Singapore vary significantly depending on the type of service, religious or cultural tradition, venue, and duration. Basic packages typically start from around S$2,000–4,000 for a simple service, while more elaborate multi-day ceremonies can run S$8,000–20,000 or more once floral tributes, embalming, hearse, and ancillary items are included. Columbarium niche or burial plot costs are separate and can range from a few thousand to over S$10,000 depending on location and type. Confirm the full itemised quote in writing before proceeding — including disbursements such as permits, death certificates, and transportation — as well as what happens if arrangements change after booking. Farewell Funerals displays a '$$' pricing indicator, suggesting mid-range positioning, but direct enquiry is necessary for an accurate figure for your specific requirements.
Live-in or visit-based — which does Farewell Funerals offer?›
This question does not directly apply to Farewell Funerals, which provides funeral services rather than ongoing elder care. However, families managing end-of-life planning alongside existing care arrangements — whether home-based caregivers, nursing homes, or hospice services — will find it useful to clarify how Farewell Funerals coordinates with hospitals, hospices, and care facilities for the transfer of the deceased. Families should ask specifically about the process when a passing occurs at home versus at a hospital or nursing home, the timeline for transfer, and whether the team provides guidance on the administrative steps required immediately after a passing, including notifying the relevant authorities.
Is the team trained and insured?›
Farewell Funerals is ACRA-registered and KakiList-verified, confirming it is a legitimate, operating business. With a 4.9/5 rating from 931 Google reviews — a robust sample — the provider demonstrates a sustained record of handling families through a sensitive and logistically complex process. Funeral service providers in Singapore are not currently subject to a mandatory sector-specific licence in the way that medical or childcare providers are, so professional standards vary across operators. When engaging Farewell Funerals, it is reasonable to ask about the experience of the lead funeral director, the protocols followed for different cultural or religious traditions, and what recourse is available if the service does not meet the agreed scope. Confirm all terms, including scope and payment, in writing before proceeding.
