ABOUT US

A tradition of memorable family funerals

Since 1960 Dil’s Funeral Services has been meeting the needs of families as they cope with loss and sadness after a death. We provide funeral services based on the wishes of the families we serve. They are personalised, meaningful and memorable.

From the very beginning, we have run our company on a set of traditional family values that ensures you are met with sensitivity, empathy and warm professionalism as you begin plans to farewell your loved one.

Taking away the worry

From your first contact with us, our carefully selected and experienced staff will take the worry out of getting it right. We work sensitively to help you create a funeral service that will truly reflect their life, and the feelings of your family and friends.

This deeply personal approach formed the unique heart of our service when it was originally founded by Wilfred T Dil - and it remains in place today as our business continues into the third generation of family ownership.

Moving with the times

Equally important to remaining true to these original values has been our ability to evolve along with the times, to innovate and embrace new ideas and continue to meet the needs of changing generations.

We carry out our work as a ‘family’, with integrity, honesty and with the highest respect for you and your family. And in line with the very best philosophy based on familial care and empathy - ‘nothing is too much trouble’.

Standing apart

Our company stands apart as a funeral service provider and, at this difficult time, we can assure you that:

  • We will listen to your needs and find out exactly what you want
  • The funeral service we create together will be personal, individual and tailored exactly to your requirements
  • Traditions and special requirements important to your family will be followed
  • Help and guidance will always be available and you will have access to knowledgeable, experienced and sensitive staff
  • You will have access to world class facilities including our award winning North Harbour Chapel
