We found the funeral home very warm and inviting and thank the team who cared for our mum and handle everything with respect and professionalism. Graham was very helpful and quick to respond and action any questions on request. We received some really nice comments from friends and family on the service, the little extra touches and attention to detail that we weren’t expecting that made it a really beautiful service. Our family will remember the day with warm memories and thank Graham and the team at Kapiti Funeral Home for all aspects of the service provided. The Chung Family

Dignity, compassion and helpful suggestions made the whole commitment of our beloved husband and family member so much easier. Questions answered with care and diplomacy were comforting. We opted for a small family service and it was handled with as much care and thought as a larger one would have been. The arranging of the chairs to a more intimate half circle was perfect. Graeme has been so great, anticipating things I did not have my head around. Other staff we have dealt with also reflect the best of the Funeral Home, A sincere thank you from all our Family, Ros Tucker

On arrival to view Kapiti Coast Funeral Home some weeks beforehand, I found the Home very warm and inviting not stark and cold. The staff were friendly, helpful and sincere not trying to sell themselves.This first meeting impressed me immensely. Everything I was looking for was there. It felt just right. The day exceeded all my expectations with every detail done to perfection plus little extras as surprises, with love warmth and total sincerity. A day I will treasure always. Thank you all for making our day the best day of all. Margaret

Incredibly compassionate and sensitive to grief and family dynamics. Was a beautiful day, the service was held in our home, no hitches, relaxed and peaceful. Everything explained well in advance. Many thanks for your personal care and attention to detail.

From the very first call, when Lynn’s kind and welcoming voice greeted me, to the wonderful team who cared for Tony with such dignity, and to Hannah, who helped us arrange the most beautiful send-off—we want to say a huge thank you. Hannah, you made a really difficult time manageable. You were caring, professional, and so genuine in the way you guided us. Your attention to detail meant so much—the daffodil theme, the beautifully designed order of service with the perfect photo placement were all just right. On top of that, your thoughtful suggestions and little extra touches went above and beyond. We always felt we were in safe hands. We’re so grateful that, with your help, we were able to farewell Tony in a way that was personal and right for us. As a family, we all agreed there isn’t a single thing we would have changed. Thank you for helping to turn a very hard time into something truly precious. With immense gratitude, The Jensen Family
