While curiosity was what first drew Robin to the funeral industry, he soon discovered that it was a perfect niche where he could be himself while offering support and empathy to others. “Each family is so unique in the way they wish to portray their loved ones. The opportunity for me is to adapt my skills to meet changing ideas and requests as they arise.”
Robin has been particularly impressed with the Otukaikino Living Memorial and the work that has gone into establishing this peaceful reserve for the larger Canterbury community. “It is a natural environment where the living and deceased blend as one. As each tree is planted its growth is supported by a life that has been lived and remembered.”
