Funeral Services

Today the style of funeral services is much more varied and need not be limited to the traditional. Services are often held in situations that better reflect the lifestyle of the deceased. This may be in the rooms of his or her favourite club, or in a family home or garden.   Whatever the preferred style or venue, Todd Gower Funeral Services is here to accommodate the wishes of your family.

We offer a personal, professional and compassionate range of services tailored to meet your needs.

Prepaid Funerals

A Prepaid Funeral Fund allows you to set aside some or all of the required funds for your funeral in advance - with these funds then being held for you until they are required. Funds cannot be withdrawn in your lifetime giving you the peace of mind that they will be available when they are required.

Pre-arranged Funerals

Two good reasons why prearranging is a good idea:
  • To let someone know your wishes
  • To ensure arranging the funeral service is as easy as possible for those left behind.
