In recent days a modest number of telephone calls have been received with regard to
Mr Jacob Ngarewa formerly a company director of DIGNITY CREMATIONS LIMITED and AFFORDABLE FAREWELLS LIMITED based in Te Kuiti.
I formerly advise that Ormsby Family Funerals Otorohanga is not in any manner connected to, associated with or working alongside Mr Ngarewa his business entities and or any pre paid funeral trust funds he might possibly oversee.
Ormsby Family Funerals has on occasion in the past provided trade embalming services to Mr Ngarewa's then funeral business and have also engaged him as a contracted Funeral Celebrant, however he has never at any time been a paid employee of Ormsby Family Funerals.
I can also advise that whilst Mrs Jaqueline Ormsby Ngarewa and I share a close family connection, like her husband Jacob there is no formal association between her and Ormsby Family Funerals.
