MONTHS of redevelopment has been capped off with new signage and external restoration of Appleby Funerals.
The historic Brooke Street business is ushering in a new era that will see the office opening three days a week after renovations and restoration. New signage was installed last week.
“We wanted to provide a space to better serve the community, and a warm and welcoming environment to allow families the space to organised loved ones funerals and save families the worry from having to travel into Bendigo to arrange funerals or spend time with their loved one,” said Appleby’s owner and director Jesse Cattell. 
“The facility has an arrangement room, viewing room for families to spend time with their loved ones, together with offices and a mortuary care centre. 
“In the coming months, the office will open from 3 days a week, 10am - 4pm, to allow families to visit at their convenience to preplan, arrange funerals if needed and ask any questions they may have. This is only stage one of the development, and over the coming months, we will continue to work on further areas.  
“Our family is committed to remaining locally owned and operated, and consider our funeral home so much more than just a business, but a legacy and a partnership with our community.”
