“Grief is a journey not a destination”

The Staff from Avenal Park Funeral Home

Time to Talk Awareness Week (April 9-13). Across all our relationships we focus on hello – greeting our grandchildren with arms wide open, giving Mum a hug when we see her and we smile and wave to our friends. Goodbye is just as important as hello.

The Take the Time to Talk campaign encourages us to realise the value we put on hello, and to think about putting the same focus on goodbye; to allow our families the best opportunity to grieve well. As an FDANZ member Avenal Park Funeral Home can support your family to say goodbye.

Nigel and Christine Edwards and the staff offer a professional service to take some of the stress away from families.

Come and see us at the Women’s Lifestyle Expo - April 14–15, 2018 ILT Stadium Southland – encouraging people to “take the time to talk”. There is further information on www.fdanz.co.nz

For more information on what is available or you would like to discuss options, contact Nigel, Donna, Chris or Mel at Avenal Park Funeral Home - 03 218 9021

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
