 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the pleasure of working with Manaaki Funeral Services after our nanny Ange passed away. They were so easy to communicate with and incredibly kind and caring throughout the whole process. We had our nan cremated and picked her up today, everything was handled with such love and respect.
We couldn’t recommend Manaaki Funeral Services more highly. E mihi ana ki a koutou katoa moo ngaa ringa aroha, ringa aawhina anoo hoki i roto i teenei waa pouri. Ngaa mihi nui ki a koutou katoa 🤍
