farewells with flair

…because the celebration of a life should be as unique as the one who lived it.

“There’s only one reason you would be looking at a funeral home website, so my thoughts are with you and I’m here to help. There’s no rulebook, so whether you are seeking the familiarity and comfort of a traditional funeral or choosing to craft a one-of-a-kind farewell or no service cremation, I will be with you every step of the way to guide you in making beautiful, informed choices”.

Meet Karen

A funeral, a farewell, a celebration of life…. however you choose to describe it, acknowledging the end of a loved one’s earthly presence should be more than just a “one size fits all” type of approach.

My name is Karen Lucas and I have been a trusted funeral care provider since starting as a trainee embalmer/mortician and funeral assistant in 2001.

My passion is to do away with the “package funeral” approach and personalise each, and every farewell. To listen and understand your needs. To humanise and simplify the funeral process. To make every farewell the most positive experience it can possibly be.

I’m a big believer in a cuppa and a chat, so give me a call – I can pop around and we can do just that!

I look forward to meeting you – Karen

Please once again accept our heartfelt appreciation. It was so comforting to know Mum was so beautifully looked after. Allowing us to be part of the process in a very practical, compassionate and positive way and the outstanding “send off” she had, has helped us all enormously with the grief process. Many many thanks to Karen and her team.

-Annie Chappell and family
