You’re beautiful, you’re endless, now stretch your wings and fly,
You’re loved by so many, it will never be goodbye.''

RECOGNITION THAT REASSURES FAMILIES

We are receiving more enquiries recently regarding pre-paid funeral plans.
When families see the Golden Charter seal, they know they’re in safe hands.

We encourage people to seek professional advice from local funeral homes such as ourselves about the differences between funeral plans, policies and insurances.
