Thank you to the unsung heroes in our community.
We at Avenal Park Funeral Home, acknowledge carers (who visit homes and care for those who are sick, elderly or disabled), cleaners, farmers, truck and passenger drivers, store attendants, workers who maintain our power lines and collect our rubbish, businesses who have supported essential services, those who have managed to work at home in their own bubble, and volunteers (who have made a difference in other people’s lives). And we thank everyone who has stayed at home to protect themselves and others.
The world as we know it has changed, but we are proud to be in a country that has shown kindness, respect and a willingness to work together – thank you.
Kia kaha from the staff at Avenal Park Funeral Home.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
