# Our legacy: providing hope and support during difficult times

 

We are so proud to say that Pettigrew Family Funerals is a third-generation family business.

It is an honour to continue to build on the incredible 50-year legacy started by my grandfather and his brothers, and continued by my mum and dad. It is a blessing to share each and every day with my family and this amazing team of selfless individuals.

At Pettigrew, we are here to provide hope and support to families who entrust us, in one of the most difficult times of their lives.
