Funeral and celebration of life ceremonies

I must admit ... I’m on a bit of a mission with Funerals!
To deliver funeral and celebration of life ceremonies that my clients feel truly proud of.
I think I remember when my motivation was sparked……

Meet my Nan Eva who passed away in July 2000.

She was a cheeky, cuddly, sociable, resilient lady; a wife, mother, grandmother and business owner. She liked a flutter on the horses and boiled sweets, the latter of which would emerge from the depth of her closely guarded handbag on a regular basis. We all adored her.

Sadly for us, her family and many friends, her funeral was underwhelming and impersonal and at 27 I felt a bit cheated by the whole experience.

Fast forward 22 years and I’m now on a mission to ensure none of my client’s experience what I did that day.

I write and deliver bespoke, personalised funeral ceremonies that truly reflect your loved one, their quirks, their achievements, their passions, their attributes, their life.

I also firmly believe a good funeral or celebration of life ceremony can do YOU a lot of good too.
For those planning the send-off, a feeling of fulfilment following a ceremony is absolutely possible and I work closely with my clients to ensure that’s exactly what they get.

time to start planning a funeral ceremony?

A ceremony at your local Crematorium or Woodland Burial Ground is a popular choice for most families. Your Funeral Director will advise you of the choices.

Once you’ve decided you’d like me to conduct the ceremony, you can call me directly to let me know you’d like to get the ball rolling.

If I had a pound for every time a family tells me that they don’t know here to start with planning the ceremony……….

Please, please, please don’t worry, that’s absolutely why I’m here. I have years of experience in gently guiding families through the process of planning a funeral ceremony.

We ALWAYS go at your pace, you aren’t expected to know what to do and we’ll probably shed a tear or two together at some point in the process!

My promise to you is that we will do a REALLY good job of it together and you WILL feel proud of what we achieve.

We just want to thank you very much indeed for all your assistance with Mother's funeral.

You made the planning process very straightforward and expertly crafted the service into a suitable format within the discipline of timings! Sorry I made it a bit of a struggle!

We have received a number of messages from our attendees and viewers of the webcast and they all congratulated us on the wonderful and thoughtful service.

I just wanted to thank you so very much for your presentation of Grahams Eulogy. You did an amazing job of balancing it with the right amount of sorrow, outweighed with our intention of happier times remembered by all.

Thank you for your excellent Eulogy delivery.

I might add that several of the attendees commented on how impressed they were with you.

Well done

Just wanted to say a word of gratitude for Fridays service.

So many people have approached me to say that the service was one of the best services theyve ever been to and how perfectly you fitted the mood.

We had a quality night afterwards with loads if drinks flowing!

But again, a massive thank you
