CELEBRATION OF LIFE ServICES

Being a funeral celebrant is a rewarding role for me, and is a profession that I am grateful to have found. It is an honour when a family puts their trust in me to officiate a service for their loved one. lt is a responsibility I take seriously while I aim to creatively write a service that is congruent to the life being remembered. My aim is to act as an extension of the family and friends for the day. That is done by establishing a genuine connection and listening to the wishes for the person we are celebrating.

I come from a place of service and genuinely love what I do. Being able to help a family, or individual, during an emotionally vulnerable time is something I take great pride in.

Your words brought comfort and solace to us during this challenging time, and your empathy and warmth touched our hearts deeply. Your ability to capture the essence of dad's life and spirit made the ceremony truly special and meaningful for us all. Many have expressed how beautiful the service was. It's evident that you are clearly in the right line of work, where your compassion shines through and makes a difference in people's lives."

  • "Thank you for doing a beautiful job at my father's funeral. It's a massive responsibility, expressing the character of a life, and you handled the entire challenge with sensitivity, eloquence and diligent attention to detail. We couldn't have asked for more. You really helped me through the experience as I trusted you to get it right, and you did. My brother and sister have asked me to convey their profound thanks also."

  • "On behalf of my family, I would like to thank you for the fantastic job you did in officiating Doris's Memorial Service yesterday. We appreciated the time you spent with us in getting to know Doris. People actually thought you knew Doris, which was your aim. We had so much positive feedback about the service, it was the best everyone had attended. We cannot thank you enough for your role in making it such a special day to celebrate her life. Doris would have been very proud."

  • "I would like to say thank you so very much for today. The service was beautiful and everything went smoothly.  Your communication has been impeccable and nothing was an issue. Thank you so much for making this difficult time just a little bit easier."

  • "We just want to say a huge thank you for all you did to help us through the afternoon and how you captured Michael so perfectly with your words. I had a few people say to me the celebrant was great and the service was lovely."

  • “ I wanted to personally reach out and thank you once again, from the bottom of my heart. Your service, professionalism and kindness made all the difference to us during such a difficult time. As much as we knew we wouldn't have a lot more time with Dad, I don't feel any of us were fully prepared to plan a funeral - I honestly cannot thank you enough for conducting the service and making the process extremely easy and stress free for my mum, brother and I. We have had such lovely feedback about Dad's service and so many comments on how well yourself and Somerville conducted the funeral also. I take comfort in knowing that Dad would have been extremely chuffed with his send off, it was perfect! I wish you all the best, it takes a special kind of person to do what you do - Thank you so very much.”
