“Herbert King Funerals provide an excellent service - thoughtful, kindly and efficient. A recent family funeral was a truly happy occasion to remember a well-lived life thanks to Manager Rick and his staff ensuring that all necessary elements were considered and everything ran smoothly. The photo montage was beautifully designed by Matilda. Thank you!”
Ann HughesAugust 2016“Our family decided to use Herbert King (Ashburton Tobin Bros) to arrange the funeral of a recently deceased loved one. They provided a thoroughly excellent and respectful service, and were more than willing to provide a personalised service after our somewhat lengthy dialog over our families specific needs. The webcast ran flawlessly and allowed absent family members to participate even during the current COVID 19 restrictions. Would recommend.”
