Visit our new, purpose built, modern facilities in Warkworth
From the outset, we wanted besoul to be somewhere that you could make your own. All of our spaces have been designed to enable quiet reflection or sharing of stories and memories with family and friends.
Our location, in Warkworth, means we are a funeral home that can be there for families in Orewa and the Hibiscus Coast, throughout Rodney, and up to Mangawhai or Whangarei. We strive to accommodate where we can.
LILY WATSON
Lily’s passion for her occupation paid off when she became fully qualified as a registered funeral director and was awarded the Highest Marks in the Theory of Funeral Directing Award for her year.
Living and working in Warkworth, Lily lives life to the full spending time with her daughter and granddaughters in nearby Puhoi, as well as walking, fishing, and enjoying the beaches in our beautiful area. She also spends extra time with husband Peter, as he has taken a change of direction from his background in psychology, after many years working in mental health and disability and is assisting Lily at besoul.
“I feel blessed with the opportunity to manage and develop this beautiful new funeral home, and to offer a modern approach for families. We are committed to serving families with professionalism, empathy, and ultimately provide the best for them.”
“On behalf of my entire family, I would like to say a massive thank you to Lily and the team at besoul Funerals for the utmost care and respect showed to us when planning the celebration of our Papa’s life.
The whole process couldn’t have been easier which was appreciated immensely in such a sad time for all of us. Everything was done with the grace, patience, respect, and care that such a great man deserved which made the service very special for everyone involved.
I can’t recommend besoul Funerals highly enough.”
– Ashlee
“I would like to thank you very much on behalf of our family for the prompt, professional and very caring manner in which you conducted yourself during the process of my father’s end of life celebration. From my first phone call to you, you guided us through every step required to look after Dad and made what would have been a very stressful ordeal so much easier with your advice and caring attention to detail. The flexibility you afforded us personalise our celebration of Dad’s life made our day very special indeed.”
