From the director’s office

The passing of a loved one is an emotional and often traumatic event where professional assistance, effective guidance, and understanding are greatly needed.

East Rand Funeral Directors is your community funeral undertaker where professionalism, efficiency, integrity, and character form the core of our operation. We are transparent in all that we do and pay special attention to the finer details.

East Rand Funeral Directors offers our clients the UNIQUE opportunity to arrange their funerals in a peaceful, serene, and tranquil environment. Where you will be met with true caring hospitality, in a homely environment, where everyone will feel at home and comfortable. We have a very warm, personal approach, devoid of the clinical and often morbid procedures followed by most funeral undertakers.

We have created caring and efficient alternatives for family members overseas who need to make funeral arrangements but are not in the country. Our consultants are always on standby to assist and guide family members through the very tough process of making arrangements for their loved ones.

Our clients are provided with all the necessary information to make informed decisions. We aim to exceed your expectations when we are given the opportunity to be of service to you.

At East Rand Funeral Directors, we focus on LIFE!

We accept all reputable cash-back funeral policies (There are, however, a few policies that are not cash-back policies, which we are not able to assist with, but we will do our very best to help the family as far as possible). Our administration staff will supply all the required documentation to facilitate the full cash payment of the policy to the beneficiary, regardless of who initially issued the policy.

Martiens Jurgens

"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."

-Elisabeth Kübler-Ross-
