Sharleen has been working as a funeral director for more than three years and is passionate about supporting families through one of life’s most significant journeys. She finds great fulfilment in helping create meaningful and personal farewells for loved ones and considers it a privilege to be part of that process. Throughout her time in the funeral industry, Sharleen has gained experience across many areas of the funeral home, including funeral directing, monumental services, and administration. She is now looking forward to expanding her skills by learning embalming. Raised in Onewhero, Sharleen has called Tuakau home for the past 17 years. She lives there with her husband, Mike, and their two children, David (DJ) and Melanie. It is truly an honour to live and work within the same community, serving and supporting the people who call it home.
