Funerals in Albany

3rd November 2009
Words cannot express how grateful I am for the job done on Lyndsay Rawiri's headstone. I would like to thank you on behalf of Lyndsay, our children and myself as this headstone has enabled us to find a little closure to our loss. Thank you for your hard work and patience and understanding. I am eternally grateful for everything you guys have done. Forever grateful Lisette Apperley & children.

Our 7 year old dog Rosie was buried at the Garden of Rememberance this morning. We were in two minds whether to take our young children (ages 4 and 2) along as we did not know if it would add to the trauma or help with the loss. I am so glad we did. When we arrived Dave showed us to the plot he had ready for her and was so respectful of our feelings making the whole thing so much easier to deal with. He laid out a 'soft bed' for her first and then gently put her in. We buried her in a soft cloth that he adjusted to cover her face before asking if we wanted to help to fill in the hole. We were made to feel so welcome and comfortable to return to visit her at any time. The children have been so much calmer since this afternoon and although of course we all miss her very much we know her resting place is a peaceful beautiful place which makes our loss that little bit easier to deal with.
