A fitting farewell 

Everybody deserves to say their final farewell with a respectful, dignified send off for their loved one, as unique as the life they are celebrating.

We know that families are not always prepared to plan a funeral for someone they love. Which is why we work hard to fulfill your needs and wishes, without the burden of high funeral or cremation costs. 

While you can customise the service to align with your family’s or your loved one’s last wishes, our honest and transparent approach ensures you are not surprised by unexpected costs. With affordable options that offer a dignified farewell for your loved one, we can help ensure that it is an occasion that still reflects what matters most to you.

Our professional, experienced team supports families with funeral, burial and cremation services throughout Waikato, Taupo and Bay of Plenty.
