ABOUT KINGS FUNERALS: YOUR LOCAL FUNERAL COMPANY
SERVING FAMILIES FOR 70 YEARS
Kings Funerals is a local funeral company based in Geelong with 70 years of experience supporting families through loss. As a third-generation, family-owned
funeral home, we’ve walked alongside thousands of people during some of life’s most challenging times.
We serve communities across Geelong, the Surf Coast, Bellarine Peninsula and Golden Plains — offering care that’s both thoughtful and grounded. Every life is different, and we take the time to listen and guide each family toward a farewell that truly reflects their person.
The grieving process isn’t linear, and it’s never the same for everyone. Our role is to provide gentle support, guidance and practical care, whether you need help planning ahead or navigating a recent loss.
We’ve stayed true to the values we started with, while embracing new ways to better serve our community.
HERE FOR YOU, FOR FUNERALS YOUR WAY
“WE HAVE THE PRIVILEGE – THE ABSOLUTE PRIVILEGE – TO BE INTRODUCED INTO A FAMILY AND PROVIDE A GUIDING HAND”
MICHAEL KING
OUR STORY
Kings Funerals began in 1955, when Max and Madge King opened their doors in Geelong. Their drive to serve came from a simple belief in helping others, especially the many migrant families who were making a new life in the area.
“I AM PROUD OF MY PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS FOR THEIR DEDICATION TO HELPING OTHERS. I HAVE GROWN UP AROUND KNOWING HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO RESPECT AND HONOUR PEOPLE,”
BETH KING
Their son Michael King, and his wife Louise King, carried this commitment forward, and today, their legacy lives on through a team that remains deeply connected to the community.
Listening is central to everything we do. We take care to understand what made a person who they were and shape the funeral around that. Every service is an opportunity to honour a life and offer families a starting point for healing.
Our team continues to uphold values of openness, respect and trust. Transparent pricing, no pressure, and the flexibility to make meaningful choices are just some of the ways we support families, always with empathy, never with haste.
“I THINK HAVING ETERNAL CURIOSITY ABOUT PEOPLE HELPS. EACH DAY IS SOMEONE NEW. HEARING PEOPLE’S STORIES IS JUST FASCINATING AND HEARTBREAKING AS WELL.”
LOUISE KING
HONOURING FAMILIES WITH CARE
At Kings Funerals, we understand that grief doesn’t follow a formula. Each person we support brings their own story, culture, and way of saying goodbye. That’s why we focus on making every funeral personal and grounded in what matters most to the family.
Our approach is shaped by compassion, but also by experience. With decades of local knowledge, a dedicated team, and facilities across the region, we’re here to offer practical support, from the first phone call to the service and beyond.
We work closely with families in Geelong, Ocean Grove, Newcomb, Torquay, and the wider region as a funeral company that cares deeply about their neighbours. It’s not just our job to help, it’s our honour.

FAREWELL TO OUR MUM
We had a pre-paid funeral already in place, which made the whole process a lot easier. Everything went smoothly before & during the funeral, which kept our stress levels down & we appreciated the attention to detail from our co-ordinator. I would definitely recommend Kings to anyone.
