Simplicity Funerals, Nelson

24/07/2025

Today Barry was at our Simplicity Richmond Office, and meet a number of very wonderful and lovely ladies, who just happened to pop in and say "Hi". The one on Barry's left is due to get married this weekend and the girls were out on the town for some fun and dressed up so no one would recognise them, but sorry your secret is out. All the best for this weekend and congratulations for the up coming wedding, from all the team at Simplicity.

🌍 A Big Thank You to Stoke Seniors! 🌟

Barry had a wonderful time yesterday, talking to the lovely group at Stoke Seniors, with stories and photos from his travels around the world. The seniors thoroughly enjoyed hearing about what he has learnt about unique customs and fascinating funeral traditions, and his visits to stunning churches and cemeteries. ✈️⛪💐

If you would like Barry to come and share his stories, he’s more than happy to do so — just get in touch!

Enjoy the selection of photos below, which are a small selection of those he shared in his presentation.

Hey everyone, Ethan here. After spending the last year working towards my NZ Diploma in Funeral Directing, yesterday was graduation day! I finished my studies last year so it was great to walk across the stage and celebrate with my fellow graduates! Here’s a snap of me with other graduating Funeral Directors from around NZ, Laura, Caroline, Hannah, Dana our Tutor and Jonathon.
