Adelle Gesler, Board Member

Adelle has been a Funeral Director with Burstows for nearly eight years. She finds it deeply rewarding and an honour to provide meaningful guidance and support to families during such difficult times.

Before moving to Dalby from Central Queensland, Adelle worked onboard Queensland Rail’s travel trains and also assisted as a casual funeral worker. Moving to Dalby was a big change, but she quickly fell in love with the town and its strong sense of community.

Adelle has become involved in local sporting clubs through her three children and also volunteers at Karingal when work permits. In her free time, she enjoys reading—and, as she admits, indulging in lots of lollies!
