Tracey has been part of the funeral industry for over 15 years and currently serves as General Manager at Premier Funerals. Beginning her journey in funeral care in 2009 as a bookkeeper, she quickly discovered a deep passion for supporting families through some of life’s most difficult moments and helping ease the emotional burden wherever possible.

Over the years, Tracey has arranged funeral services and repatriations for families from many different cultures, religions and backgrounds. She values the individuality of every person and believes every farewell should reflect the unique life, story and connections of the person being honoured.

Jennifer Stangret

Funeral Director / Accounts Personnel

I believe every funeral or memorial should reflect the individuality of the person your loved one was in life. Hi, my name is Jenny, I have only been in the funeral industry for a few years, but I developed an empathy for grieving families early on in life after losing my father and aunt and many more loved ones along the way. This led me to pursue a position in the industry so I can help guide families through the often-unknown steps and details after someone they care for passes away.

I understand what it’s like to feel numb with grief, so I would be honoured to support you every step of the way when you need it most.

I’m deeply committed to delivering a dignified and personal service. I’ll take the time to understand what made your loved one so special and what their loss means to you. I want to know about their interests, personality traits and any quirky characteristics that made them unique. I’ll offer suggestions and give you my complete dedication by taking care of every detail when you entrust your loved one into my care.

Paul Agresta

Funeral Director / Mortician

Hi there, my name is Paul Agresta. I was born and grew up in regional NSW, moved to Sydney and then Canberra before settling with my family for the last couple of years in Armidale in the New England Region of Northern NSW. We moved to Brisbane to be closer to our broader family and have only been here a short time.

Once I moved to Queensland, after coming from years of being in a rewarding career in nursing and people management, where I demonstrated a true understanding of listening to my patients and my team, I showed compassion, empathy and sympathy for those in need, I made the decision that I wanted to continue helping people, and I entered the funeral industry and began working
for Premier Funerals.

As we all walk different paths through life and beyond, I will offer suggestions, I will also ensure that your voice is heard and commit to giving you and your loved one the upmost respect and professionalism during this difficult time.

I believe it is an honour and privilege to be entrusted to take care of your loved one, to show your loved one the respect, dignity and individuality they deserve. To work with families although at a time of grief to ensure that there
is a celebration of life and memories are cherished.

Thank you
“those we love don’t go away, they walk beside us every day, unseen, unheard, but always near, still loved, still missed and very dear”

Keely Gribble

Funeral Director

Hi, my name is Keely and I am a compassionate and empathetic funeral director who brings a fresh perspective to the profession, grounded in a deep commitment to caring for others.

Before I started in the funeral industry, I built a career in the disability sector, working closely with individuals and families to provide support, advocacy and understanding. This background instilled strength, patience and respect within me, and the ability to meet people where they are during life’s most challenging times.

As a mother of three, including two children with a life long medical disability, I have lived experience in navigating difficult circumstances with strength and grace.

This personal journey has shaped me into someone who listens without judgement, offers comfort without rushing and approaches every family with genuine kindness.

Now, as I begin a new career path in funeral services, I am dedicated to learning and growing in my role while ensuring that every farewell I help arrange will be handled with dignity, sensitivity and care.

I see it as a privilege to support families through their grief and to help them create meaningful tributes that honour the lives of their loved ones.
