South East Asian Funeral Services
Our South East Asian Funeral Services have been formed in consultation with the community and their general needs (keeping in mind each family is unique). We have had many requests over the years for funeral packages for various communities with a particular focus on cultural or religious themes. In light of these requests, we have formulated these funeral packages that cater to specific needs, whilst giving families the option to alter these to their own needs.
Anyone and everyone is welcome to use these funeral packages.
We have 2 South East Asian Funeral options servicing the Auckland area
