CEREMONIES FOR LIFE’S MILESTONES

A memorial or end of life celebration is usually held weeks or months after the funeral to enable a community or workplace to honour the deceased and remember their life & achievements in a more relaxed environment.

Usually a longer ceremony, more time is given to reflect or celebrate the life lived.

I can ensure that these longer ceremonies encompass all that is important to loved ones, work colleagues, neighbours or communities. A memorial can include musicians or speakers. Whatever/whoever is important and wants to contribute without time restraints.

Reflection on achievements and life lived, my service will be full of respect, love and memories for all to cherish forever.

Working alongside families, who have suffered the loss of a loved one, I work with utmost respect and care. We will meet to discuss the life lived, capturing the precious memories with dignity, respect and sensitivity side by side together.

I want to ensure that all funerals I perform offer warmth, affection and capture the essence of your loved one in a caring and heartfelt way, sprinkled with the humour and personality of the special life lived. I am keen to ensure that I am sensitive to everyone’s needs including those of any children present.

My tributes can be written to include religious, non-religious or spiritual content. I can help to choose any readings, poems, music or family contributions as needed. There is no one size fits all approach. Each funeral will be unique and tailor made especially for you.

I work mainly in Essex and Hertfordshire, but I can travel further afield if needed. I can offer services that can be cast to the web allowing mourners to be present no matter where they are in the world.

I can offer support to write your whole service or just the eulogy part. Creating a service that you would like to have, I will include any poems, music, hymns or prayers ensuring you get the send of you would like.

Alleviating the responsibility from your loved ones after you depart could be the ultimate gift to give. I can assist you in creating the memories you would like to share with all.

There is a call now to offer this service to people who like to plan for the inevitable stage in life which is to come to us all.

Once written, this can be kept alongside your will to be read by myself (if available) or by a celebrant of your loved ones choosing.
