Memorials – headstones and plaques

The Staff from Avenal Park Funeral Home

It doesn’t matter who conducted the funeral or how long ago it was: Avenal Park Funeral Home is here to help.

Memorial headstones can be as individual and personalised as the lives they commemorate. Each headstone or plaque is engraved and decorated to reflect the personality of your loved one.

At every stage, from your initial ideas, to the final design, through to checking of the layout prior to the blasting of the stone, you are involved in the process. Quotes can be given prior to work commencing. We are members of the New Zealand Master Monumental Masons Association, so you can be assured we offer a high standard of service and products. We also clean, repair and restore existing headstones and plaques throughout Southland.

You can contact Avenal Park Funeral Home on 0800 033 925, email us office@avenalpark.co.nz or visit our showroom at 75 Fox Street, Invercargill to discuss options. Find out more

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
