Novel Coronavirus (Covid-19) Update

Alert Level 2 allows for up to 100 people to attend a funeral service.  Although somewhat restrictive, we can at least still honour our loved ones with the dignity and respect they deserve.

Families are permitted to gather for the funeral, attend the committal service at the Crematorium or Cemetery, and partake in refreshments after the service – providing each venue can accommodate the physical distancing requirements.

Rest assured we work closely with each family to explore the options most appropriate to their particular situation and needs.
