Community & Family

On Saturday 5th June, 1886, Kate Mary Smith submitted an ‘Undertaker’s Notice’ in The Brisbane Courier: “The inhabitants of Brisbane and surrounding districts are respectfully informed that the long established business so successfully carried on by the late John Smith, as Undertaker, will in future be carried on by his Widow”. This was K.M. Smiths’ first sharing of ‘News & Events’ with the community and the families we respectfully continue to share our news and event items with today.

It's the first day of March and the beginning of the Children's Cancer Institute's '86K for a Cure' fundraiser - in support of the 86 children diagnosed each month with cancer.

"K.M.Smith have put together a crack team of ten staff members (team name: The Directors), to walk 86K with me this month. I look forward to sharing our beautiful walking locations with you as we walk to raise funds for children in need of a cure.

If you have driven past our Bowen Hills Head Office you will have noticed our entrance way including garden beds, driveway, verandah and steps has been upgraded. Our building is, like Kate Mary, an historical beauty and we keep her in grand condition with the greatest respect to her gracious heritage. It is a pleasure to now have the work complete. ...

"One thing I wanted to do before the end of this year was to at least ask the question to a professional: What happens if I die without any formal funeral plans in place?
I booked an appointment with KM Smith and on the initial call Gerry asked what I was hoping to get from our meeting. He was so gracious and I knew that I could ask him any question at all, and that he would not judge them as irrelevant or silly. We met the following day and within an hour my list of questions were answered, I’d received some examples from Gerry on how to be aware of top ups in the far-future, received a gorgeous Hello from Archie and a pre-plan funeral arrangement in place for my eventual passing.
I felt very, very at ease with the meeting and I am glad that I made the phone call. It’s a very lovely feeling knowing that there is an easy go-to, instruction for my family when I pass, and that I have commenced paying for it now."
