Meet Sue Monnier at Bulli

Helping others find peace in the storm is where Sue Monnier finds her purpose. 🧡

Transitioning from a life of global travel to the heart of the Bulli community, Sue’s journey to Hansen & Cole Funerals was driven by a lifelong desire to provide meaningful support when it matters most.

Drawing on her background in care work and her deep personal practice of yoga and meditation, Sue brings a unique, grounding presence to every family she guides.

For Sue, the mindfulness she finds in her yoga practice and the quiet beauty of the Illawarra coast is the same energy she brings to her families: "I love providing meaningful support and comfort," Sue shares.

"My goal is to gently guide families in creating a healing farewell, helping to ease their burden so they can find a sense of peace during such a difficult time."
