Top Tip #12 for Bereavement Care

Rhonda Neighbourly Lead from Hastings Central

Hi there,
I am coming across more people who have been in the situation where a family member or friend has died and they need to call a Funeral Home or Funeral Director to come and help look after their loved one.
PROBLEM FOR SOME:
They don't know who to call.
They don't know really what that call means.

Anyone and Everyone are potentially going to have to be part of this process at some stage - making the call I mean or deciding with others who to call.

If you know who you would call, GREAT!

If you don't know who you would call, here is a list of things you might like to research about the Funeral Homes in your area, so you can make a decision you are happy with.
*Treat it like house buying, pop around a few places and find out who they are, and all about them.

* Firstly, who works there and who does what?
* Look at their premises - no two are the same.
* Ask for their prices - check if it includes or excludes GST.
* Ask who does their catering and then ask around if the caterers are good.
* Ask if they have a celebrant on staff. If they do, you need to know, you can use that celebrant or you can choose an independent one. (some people have told me they were not told they could choose someone else to be their celebrant).
* If they have a chapel available, ask to go and see it. You need to know that if you want to go to this chapel or that chapel - you have to go through the funeral directors who own it.
* If you phone a funeral home to come and collect your loved one, you are telling them that you are engaging them, and expecting them to look after you and follow your wishes. This could be from direct cremation right through to all the trimmings.
* Ask around as to who people have had excellent service from.

Whoever you phone, you should know who they are and have full confidence in them.
It is all about YOUR CHOICE. We make good choices when we know all the facts.

Lastly, if someone conducted a funeral service and you liked that person, chances are that Celebrant works with a number of Funeral Homes. If you want a particular Celebrant to assist you, then phone them directly, to start a conversation, or ask the Funeral Director to contact that Celebrant. And if you really want someone in particular, then find out when they are available before you set the date and time for a Service.

Just like the Earthquake Kit
GET SORTED AND GET THROUGH!

Kind regards to you all.
Hope you can enjoy the sun for a time today and that some of you have enjoyed the Hastings Blossom Parade! I Love all the Fun!

Hi,

There's gotta be a bunch of automatic card shufflers just sitting in the back of someone's cubboard? Anyone have one that still works that I might be able to work out something for?

Planning a Holiday and Need Your Home & Pets Taken Care Of?

As 'Your Friendly Housesitter', I will make leaving home easy-peasy for any family that will...

>> Save you money
>> Offer you home security, and
>> Alleviate your and your pet's stress levels.

I've offered my experience as a full-time sitter since 2011 around NZ and parts of the world and available to housesit from October 1st, 2019 in the Hawkes Bay.

I work for myself 'at home' as a creative, so if your fur baby enjoys having their hooman around through the day for the company, then we would be a good fit, I'm a tactile, warm and friendly sitter - consider me your pet's favourite Aunt!

Why I Housesit:

I usually correlate my housesitting around the Social Enterprising side of my business, Drawer Full of Giants, where I actively volunteer my creative services to entrepreneurs, small businesses, and non-profits around the world up to 6 months of a year. Housesitting affords me the opportunity to be flexible and nomadic enough to be available to those who ask me to work with them.

If you'd like to to learn more about me, Tania, and peruse through my photos, videos, testimonies, then share my page with your family and friends, please visit:

www.facebook.com...

Book me to help keep Tiddles on the 'straight and narrow' while you're away... and I will attempt to hide the catnip.. promise.

Hi all,
Do you know of any electricians who might be interested in giving a good price for some non-urgent electrical work at our home? We're wondering if there's a sparky who might have downtime between jobs occasionally where they could pop around with little notice (we're almost always home) to undertake some pre-quoted work? We'd still like the work to be done in the next 3 -4 months.

We need:
* garage to be wired up
* powerpoints installed at either end of the roof space
* timer on the HWC (we have solar + battery which is being stuffed with a bit because of uncontrolled water heating)

We can be contacted on 027 257 4822.
Many thanks for recommendations.
