A PERSONAL FAREWELL

Say goodbye in the personal way you need to.

In my heart this is a beauitful service I feel honoured to offer.


When we lose someone from, there are many emotions to deal with, many arrangements to consider and this is certainly not a one size fits all process.


Every life is different, connections are uniquely relevant to that person and ways of saying a farewell is never linear.


I create services to fit your needs and to tell their story they way you wish. From a simple quiet goodbye ceremony, to a comforting nod away, to a story of their legacy and celebration of life, leaving a memorable imprint on everyones hearts. I can incorprate any readings, poems, songs, the Lord’s Prayer or religious content.


I will meet with you and chat about their life or the story you want to tell. From which I will write and conduct you a meaningful ceremony and a compassionate eulogy.


There are many choices surrounding a funeral; a cremation, a burial, a ceremony in your place of choice with a direct cremation, ceremony rituals or a scattering of ashes ceremony. There are many ways to create the exact personal ceremony you wish for.


I can be booked directly with you, of which I will then contact your Funeral Directors and connect with them, or I can be requested directly through your funeral directors.

ASH SCATTERING CEREMONIES

Not everyone wants to be limited to one ceremony, you may not even want to have an immediate ceremony. Scatterings can be held at any time after the cremation and can symbolise the freeing of someones spirit or offering you a way of letting go. There are many ways of holding these from ash burials, tree plantation scatterings, water scatterings which disolve into beautiful pools of colours or dispursed in fireworks. During such methods a personalised ceremony is conducted. Contact me for ideas and legalities.

PET CEREMONIES

Personally I understand what it is like to lose a beloved pet, they become part of the family. Their presence and the love they give us is significant. A tribute to what they brought to your life is a wonderful way of saying thank you and a loving goodbye. This can also be held alongside a burial or an ash scattering.

MY GIFT TO YO – after any ceremony I will always leave you with a binded copy of your ceremony to keep x
