"Grief is a journey not a destination"
Avenal Park Funeral Home belongs to the FDANZ and are qualified professionals you can count on to deliver a meaningful funeral.
Unfortunately, grief cannot be opted into or out of, it will confront us whether we like it or not. Social science tells us that the only way to effectively cope with grief and start to heal is through the process of a meaningful farewell. A good bye.
A funeral doesn’t have to be a fuss, it doesn’t have to be big; it just needs to be a meaningful experience for those that matter. A meaningful funeral is an opportunity for grandchildren, children, friends and other family to say good bye with as much enthusiasm as you gave them in saying hello.
For more information and to discuss prearranging funerals, contact Nigel, Donna, Chris or Mel at Avenal Park Funeral Home on 03 218 9021 or visit us at 75 Fox Street, Invercargill.
Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
