Keep your loved ones close to your heart
The staff at Avenal Park Funeral Home are here to support you before, during and after the death of your loved one. Cremation or memorial jewellery is a unique and extraordinary way to keep your loved one with you forever.
We have a range of memorial jewellery; from fingerprints in sterling silver to jewellery containing a precious note, a lock of hair or the ashes of your loved one. Our suppliers include My Angel, Love in a Jewel and A Sparrows Touch. We can assist you with the selection and ordering process.
We offer families choices – to suit your personal needs and wants. From pre-planning and prearranging of funerals, to caring for families suffering from the loss of a loved one, through to planning and designing memorial plaques to headstones, we are here to help.
If you would like to talk to someone about memorial jewellery, prearrangement or monumental options, please contact Nigel, Donna, Chris or Mel 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.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
