About Us
The Aurora is part of life’s circle—believed to be where the spirits, departed from their loved ones and remain in the sky. In many cultures the lights/stars in the night sky are believed to be the spirits of the departed family and friends shining their light on those they have left behind.
Aurora funeral services has been renamed from Hammond & Ryder earlier this year. Marie and Denis Knight bought the business two years ago. Aurora funerals services is locally owned and operated and are proud to be Gore’s only locally owned funeral home.
Marie and Denis are joined by Raewyn Simpson and between them they have 30 years experience in the funeral industry.
Supporting families through every step
At Aurora all our families are respected and unique, ensuring we focus on tailoring support including the service to meet each individuals needs and respecting and honouring their loved one. We are committed to guiding and supporting a farewell that is as exceptional and special as the person you are grieving for. We continue to build our resources to sup-port you, and we now have a Classic Hearse as part of our fleet.
