The Soul Garden

Conversation with a Funeral Director


Listen Later

In this episode of the Soul Garden, Georgina Langdale is joined by third generation funeral director, Terry Longley in a warm, thoughtful and informative discussion on what happens after someone dies. 

Statistics say that most people will only have direct experience of having to manage the funeral of 2.3 people in a lifetime. That doesn't give us much practice at knowing what to do!

So in this interview Georgina and Terry explore the deathcare landscape in New Zealand and a range of topics including:



  • The role of the funeral director

  • The importance of visitation

  • How to care for a body at home

  • Embalming 

  • Deaths referred to the Coroner

  • and what do do if someone dies at home
