Cemetery Database
Great News!
Napier, Hastings and Central Hawke's Bay Councils provide online databases that you can use to search records for people who are buried or interred within the cemeteries.
If you can not find the information you seek, you can email or phone the Cemetery Manager/Sexton at the cemetery, and they will be able to assist you. Ring your local Council who will put you through.
Thanks to the staff who work hard to ensure our cemeteries and crematorium are always well cared for. You do an excellent job.
The local Councils do their best to provide correct information. If any information you think is incorrect, please send the cemetery manager/sexton the accurate data with supporting documents if you have them.
Here are the links to go to the Databases.

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.1% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.9% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
๐ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโre unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:โโ
โ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโโ
โ Never need to know your full credit card number โ especially the CVC
โ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโโ
โ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
