Take the time to talk
From preplanning and/or prearranging of funerals, to looking after you when your loved one dies, through to designing and organising of memorials, the team at Avenal Park Funeral Home are here for you.
We encourage you to talk - to have those meaningful conversations. We have prearrangement packs at our office - 75 Fox Street, Invercargill or we can post/email the information to you. Avenal Park Funeral Home staff can assist you with completing the details. The information can either be held in safe keeping at our office or you can keep the paperwork with your other important documents. Just remember to tell a family member, or someone close to you where this information is stored.
Prepayments are managed through the FDANZ Funeral Trust. It is not an insurance policy, the money you pay is yours – held in trust for when it is required.
If you would like to talk to someone about funeral options or would even like a tour of our premises, please contact Nigel, Donna, Chris or Mel at Avenal Park Funeral Home - 03 218 9021.

Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.
