Open Day – Sunday 7 April 2019

The Staff from Avenal Park Funeral Home

If you have questions, we have answers.

As part of the Take the Time to Talk Awareness Week, Avenal Park Funeral Home are holding an open day on Sunday 7 April 2019 from 1.00pm to 3.00pm.

Everyone has a story that deserves to be told and shared. It is important to have conversations about your life and your funeral with your family, so that those close to you know what you want.

We encourage people to ask questions and have a look around our premises. We regularly encounter misinformation about what we do and the funeral process. This is an opportunity for you to see behind the scenes and learn how you can help your family.

There will be displays of coffins, urns, memorial jewellery and our monumental masonry area. You can also discuss the prearranging and prepaying of funerals with our staff.

Local celebrants, our caterer, the Loss and Grief Centre, Cancer Society and other local organisations will be there for you to talk to.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday 7 April 2019 at Avenal Park Funeral Home, 75 Fox Street, Invercargill.

If you are unable to be there on the day, you are more than welcome to contact us on 03 218 9021 to arrange another day and time.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
