Honouring life and celebrating memories
The past months have emphasised to use the importance for families to have a meaningful service for their loved one. For those who have suffered during COVID-19, we admire you for your strength and thank you for your acceptance of the situation.
We encourage people to have a service – whether it be a full funeral, a private family gathering or a memorial service held afterwards. Along with being able to celebrate a loved one’s life, a funeral can assist with the grief and healing process and it provides comfort to those who have gathered.
At Avenal Park Funeral Home, the staff can assist you in ensuring you/your loved one has a meaningful funeral. This can be from designing a personalised casket, to producing an unique service sheet and photo slideshow, through to having elements at the funeral that reflect a person’s life. We respect your needs and wishes.
We are located at 75 Fox Street, Invercargill, phone 03 218 9021 or 0800 033 925 or we can come and visit you in your own home.

A reminder to drive safer
Police are reminding motorists of the importance around following distances following a multi-vehicle crash on the Dunedin Southern Motorway yesterday.
Senior Sergeant Karl Hemmingsen, Otago Coastal Area Road Policing Manager, said Police responded to a three-vehicle crash on the Dunedin Southern Motorway at Fairfield around 8:20am this morning.
“Luckily, there were no serious injuries sustained in the crash, however it did create significant disruption for motorists, with a few people likely to be late for work this morning.
“The road has been cleared and since reopened; however, it is a good reminder of the impact sunstrike can have on our morning commutes this time of year.
“Police are asking motorists to keep their following distances in mind when driving to your destination, a larger gap between you and the car in front of you is often the difference in being able to safely stop, or crashing into the car in front of you, if they stop abruptly," Senior Sergeant Hemmingsen said.
This morning has already seen six crashes causing disruption to motorists across the Southern District, with variable conditions across the Southland, Otago Coastal and Otago Lakes areas.
This is an urgent reminder to pay close attention when driving on the roads, and drive to the conditions, increase following distances, slow down, and put your distractions away.
We want to see everyone getting to their destinations safely.
