Legacy Funerals

Funeral Directors Tauranga
Legacy Funerals have been providing professional funeral services to the Tauranga community since 1990. Legacy Funerals has two dedicated chapels at Woodhill in Otumoetai and at Tauranga Park in Pyes Pa and we can arrange funerals at any location of your choice.

Whether your preference is for a modern, traditional or alternative funeral, we have the experience, expertise and compassion to give you advice and assistance to make the service special for you and your family.

Available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, we are committed to caring for you at a difficult time.

Legacy Funerals came into being in September 2007 when Gregory Brownless gifted his established Woodhill Funeral Home and Tauranga Park Funeral Home to the community under the ownership of Legacy Trust, a registered charitable trust.

Legacy Funerals is unique in that 100% of the profits are returned to the community, thus creating a genuine lasting legacy for your loved ones. To date, we have given over $500,000 to the community, with regular donations being made via Legacy Trust. You can read more about our gifting programme and policies on our website.

With regards to funeral care, our professional and dedicated team is led by Mike Savage and our professional services cover everything with regards to arranging a funeral service, including all transfers of the deceased, assisting with the selection of a casket, preparing and dressing the deceased, advising on flowers and donations, preparing service sheets, writing and placing newspaper notices, and organising catering.

We also arrange scheduling times for viewing (if requested), and we are responsible for contacting and confirming the availability of the nominated Minister or Celebrant, determining the number of pall bearers that will be needed and providing envelopes and/or collection boxes for donations to a charity if required.
