about me

As a fully certified funeral celebrant, I am committed to assisting families during some of life's most difficult moments.

My compassionate and empathetic approach to my work enables me to take the time to hear each family's unique story and collaborate closely with them to develop a ceremony that genuinely reflects their loved one's life and legacy.

Having been an English teacher in my previous professional life, I have a particular interest in literature. Therefore, if you require assistance in locating inspiring words or poetry to be included in the service, please do not hesitate to ask.

A Compassionate Funeral Service to Honour Your Loved One

Funeral Ceremonies

Losing a loved one can be an overwhelming and emotional experience, and planning a funeral can add to the stress and grief. My aim is to create a funeral ceremony that truly reflects the life and values of your loved one, while providing comfort and support to the family and friends. In addition to traditional services, I also offer non-religious and non-spiritual ceremonies to accommodate various beliefs and preferences, ensuring that the memorial is an inclusive and fitting tribute for everyone involved.

Visiting the Family

I will visit you and your family in the comfort of your own home or at a location of your choice. This is an opportunity for me to get to know you and your loved one, and to listen to your stories, memories and wishes for the funeral ceremony. We will craft a ceremony that captures the essence of your loved one's beliefs and character, imparting a sense of comfort and closure for all who join in the remembrance.

Writing the Eulogy

I will write a personalised eulogy that captures the essence of your loved one's life. The eulogy will be based on the stories and memories shared by you and your family, as well as any other information you provide about their life, personality, interests, and achievements. I will work closely with you to ensure that the eulogy is accurate, respectful, and reflects the true spirit of your loved one. Furthermore, you and your family will have the opportunity to amend the script, making sure that there won't be any surprises on the day of the funeral.

Running the Service

On the day of the funeral ceremony, I will conduct the service in a compassionate and professional manner. I will guide you through each step of the ceremony, providing support and comfort to you and your family. I will create a ceremony that showcases the singular character and values of your loved one while providing comfort and a feeling of resolution for all attendees.
