Throwback Thursday!! Great surprises when going through a box looking for something else entirely! This photo featured in the September 1978 issue of The New Zealand Funeral Director magazine. An article was written on the business that then operated out of 47 King Street West (next to King Country Kitchens). Keep an eye on our website where we will be adding a History page to share more .........

✨️Matariki is a time of reflection, celebration and renewal. ✨️ It is a time to connect with loved ones past and present.
Each year at Matariki we return to our magnolia – The Tree of Remembrance in Motakiora-Brook Park to place the cards that were filled out with names and messages at the Remembrance Service we hold at the end of each year. This year was made even more special with the help of Phil and Janene’s grandchildren.
If you wish to visit the tree we planted, 🌳you will find it in the Memorial Grove in Motakiora-Brook Park near the rotunda. It is a beautiful place to be and we are delighted to have been able to find a respectful way to honour the memories written into each card.

BEGMAN-GREEN Liane
🌿 He karere Aituā 🌿
He aha kōia e pāheke nei i aku kamo, he roimata ka heke, he hupe ka riringi. Ka tangi te kura o aituā, e kaikinikini nei, i taku kiri ka tōkia e te anu mātao.
Ko te pare-kawakawa o mate ka uwhia ki ngā whare karioi o te riu o Hangatiki, ko Te Korapatu ki runga, ko Te Kawau Maaro ki raro.
Ko te uri a Huiao, a Te Kanawa, a Peehi tēnei ka riro tītapu atu ki te pō, e kui whoatu ki te toi-o-ngā-rangi, ki te takapou okiokinga a ō mātua, a ō tūpuna.
After a courageous and hard-fought journey, our beautiful Liane Ramari Begman-Green passed peacefully on Sunday 28 June, surrounded by the love and presence of her immediate whānau.
Cherished daughter of the late Millie Rangimiria Moerua and Derek Hauangi Green.
Much loved sister to Tony, Alan, Anaru, Joanne and Te Aroha.
Devoted mother to Elroy, Alan, Tania, Jesse and Shawnee, and an adored Nana Moko to Joshua, Kaya, Sophia, Joseva, Te Maioha and Myla.
Liane will return home to her beloved Te Korapatū Pā on Monday 29 June at 3:00pm.
Whakaeke times will be held at 9:00am, 1:00pm, 3:00pm and 5:00pm, with Karakia each evening at 7:00pm.
Nehu will take place on Thursday 2nd July 2026 at 11:00am, where, in accordance with her wishes, she will be laid to rest upon her whenua in Hangatiki.
Ko te īnoi ā Liane ki te whānau, me he koha ā koutou, tēnā tākohātia ki ngā puna atawhai kei raro iho nei;

Nau mai e te iwi, kia tangi, kia amo ake i ngā tikanga, i ngā kōrero tuku iho, i ngā whakapapa i mānawa nuitia nei tō tātou whāea.
Māpuna mai te aroha ki te pae o Ngārauwharawhara, ki te poho o Te Korapatu e tū nei, e kui e moe, e oki, whakatā.
