Funerals
Celebration of Life
At no other time than at the death of a loved one are we reminded of the fragility of human life. Life is a precious gift. A funeral is a time to celebrate the life of someone who has meant so much to us. The service should be appropriate to the deceased and a memorable gathering of farewell. It can celebrate a life, farewell a soul and validate our own emotions.
Symbols and Tributes
I work closely with the family to deliver a service that is dignified and meaningful. Many times we include items in the service that are personal to the deceased. I willingly assist people in this process with careful consideration to the details. Releasing of doves, candle lighting ceremonies and rose tributes can be included in the service to involve family and friends and for upliftment of the spirit.
Memorial Services
These often occur some time after the passing and the cremation or burial of a body. At a memorial service there is no body however there may be ashes. This is a unique service of remembrance honouring the passing of this special soul.
Scattering of the Ashes
This is a service conducted sometime after the cremation to bring closure to the process of death. Some words are delivered but this is generally a more private and simple ceremony.
