Our Commitment

When you suffer a bereavement, a funeral for a member of your family is the most difficult day of your life. Everything your family and friends thought about a loved one is expressed on that day. When someone dies it comes as a great shock. Sometimes the death may be expected, but nothing prepares you for the emotional shock of losing someone close.

Our Mission Statement

"To exceed our clients' needs in standards, service and professional expertise by providing a sympathetic, caring, discreet and professional service from a family business"

What you need to know in times of bereavement

If death occurs at home.
As soon as possible, inform the doctor that the death has occurred. He/She may write out the Medical Certificate of Death when he/she visits the house, or may request you attend the surgery for this purpose.

When Death Occurs in Hospital
When death happens in hospital, the procedure is very similar. Apply to the hospital for the Medical Certificate of Death and not your family doctor.

The Coroner
In Cases where the death has been reported to the Coroner, the procedure is somewhat different. The Coroner and his officers are working in your interest. No doctor issue a Medical Certificate of Death. This will be sent by the Coroner to the Registrar's Office in the district where the death occurred, after contact has been made with the Coroner's office.
