Community & Family
On Saturday 5th June, 1886, Kate Mary Smith submitted an ‘Undertakers’ Notice’ in The Brisbane Courier informing “The inhabitants of Brisbane and surrounding districts that the long-established business so successfully carried on by the late Jno.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.
The Donald Simpson Centre in Cleveland was established in 1987 for the benefit primarily, but not exclusively, for elders looking towards retirement. Its purpose is to provide a venue for social, intellectual and physical activities for seniors and future seniors of the Redland community. K.M.Smith is a proud sponsor and was pleased to attend an afternoon tea to welcome all the new members to the centre.

Twilight Funeral Services
We recently had the pleasure of conducting a 6pm twilight funeral service at the exceptional Victory Centre, Bridgeman Downs. Like many gatherings that take place outside of normal hours, there was a relaxed feeling to the service and the on-site catering that followed. Once the twilight had turned to evening, beautiful lighting added a special dimension to the surrounds - something we experience often in our Kate Mary Chapel where twilight viewings and services are also held.

Every funeral is unique and for one of our families this was clearly reflected in their coffin display, celebrating a life long love affair with the Rabbitoh's Rugby League Club.

Commemorating Vietnam Veteran's Day
For many years we have enjoyed a close relationship with Wallaby Airlines 35 Squadron - RAAF Transport Flight Vietnam. As the picture shows they were the first in and the last out of Vietnam. Words can't match their dedication. We are proud to support them and, today in particular, to commemorate and thank them for their service.
