Caring service eases sad return
How wonderful to be held in the arms of the friendly City in a time of bereavement. The caring aspects of your friendliness became apparent in a way no other City can boast- mainly because of unique service by First Avenue Funeral Home. As a visitor here, I would not have known how to start arranging my Mother’s Funeral, until the minister of my daughter’s church suggested the Funeral Home, which turned out to be a one-stop-service. All I had to do was write out one cheque. In the most sensitive and compassionate way, this organization arrange every detail; death certificate, newspaper notices, undertakers, commissioner of oaths, flowers, cremation arrangements, Minister, organist, fees, final tea at the end and delivery of ashes. Everything was done in a beautiful historical house in Walmer. Port Elizabeth has always had a special place in my heart, because I am a Settler’s descendent. Now I am even prouder to claim my roots are here.
