Funerals
A celebration of life, a gathering of family and friends, a time to remember.
There is no honour greater than sharing and celebrating the life’s story of your loved one. I understand that every funeral is as unique as the person we are remembering, and I will work with you at this difficult time to craft a ceremony that commemorates their life, loves and relationships.
Did you know…
You can choose your own celebrant with most funeral directors and book them directly?
