Today, we celebrate the incredible mums, grandmothers, stepmums, and mother figures who fill our lives with love, strength, patience, and wisdom. 💐

At Shone and Shirley, we know that the little things mums do every day often make the biggest difference. From supporting families to building communities, your care never goes unnoticed.

Today can also be a time of reflection for those remembering mums who are no longer with us. We hold space for the love, memories, and lasting impact they leave behind. ❤️

Wishing you all a beautiful Mother’s Day filled with love, laughter, and connection with the people who matter most.

Happy Mother’s Day from the team at Shone and Shirley.

Today, we pause to remember and honour the courage, sacrifice, and enduring spirit of the men and women who have served our country.

On this ANZAC Day, Shone & Shirley Funeral Directors stand alongside our community in reflecting on the lives given, the families forever changed, and the legacy of service that continues to shape New Zealand.

We remember not only those who fell in war, but also those who returned home carrying their stories, their strength, and their silence.
Lest we forget.

Proud to sponsor and take part in The Vero Rally that has commenced on a high note.
On Monday, participants embarked on a scenic drive to Mapua, followed by a loop around Rabbit Island on the return journey.
Tuesday saw us assisting the team in the office, before reconvening with the Rally today for a visit to Willow Bank in Wakefield and a lunchtime stop at Higgins Park. The day concluded with a successful evening event, where numerous attendees admired the cars on display at Montgomery and Buxton car parks.

We were delighted to participate in and sponsor another Relay for Life event held this last weekend. The ceremony, which included candle lighting, provided a moment to reflect on those who have passed away. The community's enthusiasm was evident, and we appreciate the hard work of the Cancer Society Nelson Tasman team in making this event a success. Cancer Society Nelson Tasman. If you are able and have not already, please consider making a donation for this event on the website https://cancernelson.org.nz/
