Quote For The Week
Dear Friends and Neighbours,
Christmas Day has come and gone and the New Year is on it's way.
I sincerely hope that you all found some love and light even if it was in some small way yesterday and that you have hope and a goal for the coming week and the fresh new year.
I read this today and would like to share it with you.
Inner Beauty is Everything
People are like stained-glass windows.
They sparkle and shine when the sun is out,
but when the darkness sets in; their true beauty is revealed
only if there light is from within.
By Elizabeth Kubler Ross
Take care Friends.
With kind and warm regards

PS. I am on Duty now and over the new year if anyone is in the sad place of needing a dedicated and committed Funeral Celebrant.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
Find out more about the scheme online.
