Gillions Funeral Services
Gillions will work with you and your family to craft a farewell that reflects the life and significance of the person you have lost.
A funeral is a time for your family, friends and community to come together to support each other through this time of loss, and it is a time to remember and celebrate a life well lived.
​
It is a final farewell, a chance to express love and sadness and to share those most precious memories. Each farewell is unique and reflects the relationships, stories and personality of the person who has died.
We will do our very best to guide you through this time and to lessen the stress by helping you handle the many tasks that must be done before a funeral.
​
We are flexible and will listen, give advice when requested, but acknowledge that you may need time to make the decisions that are important to you.

About Us
Gillions Funeral Services is based in Dunedin. We service the wider Otago area, from Palmerston to the north, Lawrence and Roxburgh in Central Otago, to Milton and Balclutha in the south.
​
Our services cover every aspect of dealing with a death, from the initial transfer and funeral planning, through to the actual funeral and post-funeral decisions.
​
Several organisations and individuals need to be contacted in order to arrange a funeral service. We will liaise with them and organise all the details, as well as take care of the legal requirements and registering the death.
​
We can advise on choosing between burial or cremation, and on your loved one’s final resting place. We also offer relocation services, both nationally and internationally.
​
Our service is always offered with the highest levels of personal attention and empathy; we understand the difficult and stressful time families go through at the time of death.
​
Gillions Funeral Services is a member of The Funeral Directors Association of New Zealand and a foundation member of New Zealand Independent Funeral Homes.
​
At Gillions Funeral Services are always happy to discuss your individual requirements, either at the time of bereavement or for pre-arrangement planning.
​
Please feel free to call us and make a time to see us in your home or at our office, whenever suits you.
Our office is open 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday, and we are available on a 24-hour, 7-day a week on-call basis.
