1930-1950
Poonees funeral parlour was founded by our late grandfathers way back in the 1930’s. During the 1950’s Mr D Poonee (known as Caps) age 16 was working part-time to assist Poonees and started running the company, revolutionising the funeral industry.
1960
Mr D Poonee, helped by his brother, Mr Bieks Poonee, who joined the business in the late 1960’s, ran the business successfully to serve the local and international community establishing 3 branches, offering services to the current government, political figures, sport and TV personalities.
Today
The Mannerism and total dedication of management and staff of the well-established Poonees has earned a reputation of becoming a well-known name surpassing borders, race, profession and age. Mr D Poonee, is now Semi-retired, thus the company is currently run by Mr M Poonee, Mr N Poonee, and Mr P Chibba who are in charge of the operations and services.
What People Say
It has been impossible to get some sleep since her death, but I believe her mother will be relieved knowing that Sithembile will now be buried. Thanks to Poonee’s Funeral Parlour for their good heart.
Sithembile’s grandmother Regina
Lenasia-based Poonee’s Funeral Parlour offered the impoverished family a full funeral service, including a grave, coffin, hearse and storage.
