Loving Farewells
Funerals
Saying goodbye to a loved one is never easy and as an experienced Celebrant it has been my privilege to create and lead many services. Each one is unique to the family and the deceased and reflects their individuality. A Celebration of Life ceremony can include a range of poems, music, readings and stories of the deceased’s life.
Each one is created by me, through discussion with you, your family and/or next of kin, we can include any religious elements or non at all, the choices are yours. My ceremony’s are as unique as the individual and are created and planned with you and them in mind.
I have been privileged to work with several Funeral Directors on the East Coast and can be contacted directly by a family if they prefer.
Whether it’s a gentle, small Celebration of Life ceremony or a themed service, I will tailor my service and dress to meet your expectations.

Living Funeral Planning
Sometimes life can take unexpected turns and having a Funeral Ceremony Plan in place, can provide peace of mind and I have worked with those who have known that their life expectancy is short, to discuss plans for their funeral service.
This planning can provide a sense of calm to you, your family and friends, as your thoughts on what your Celebration of Life service should include, are all discussed. Favourite hymns, music, poems flowers and your life story can all be brought together in a bespoke service plan.
This unique opportunity provides you and your family with reassurances that your wishes are built into plans, and you have peace of mind.
As your Celebrant, I would meet with you and your family/friends to discuss the type of service you want, initial information about your life, important milestones and the messages you want to leave to loved ones.
Together we would produce a Funeral Ceremony Plan which outlines your plans and can be kept safe for when needed.

Pet Cremations
Love for a family pet is built upon the time they spend in our lives and the joy and companionship they give back to us, their owners. Saying goodbye to a much-loved family member of the 4- or 2-legged variety, can be traumatic and devastating.
As your Celebrant, I would create a short ceremony which celebrates all that they shared with you, and provide an opportunity for you and your family to bid a fond farewell to a much loved friend. I can be the one to say what’s in your heart and provide the opportunity to celebrate the life of a much-loved friend and companion.
