I offer my services throughout Exeter and East Devon, and I am available to conduct burials at any site within this area and cremations at East Devon and Exeter & Devon Crematoriums.
My role is to help create a deeply personal funeral ceremony which accurately captures the very essence of the person and their journey through life. As no two people are the same, every ceremony I create is unique.
It is usual for the Funeral Director to make initial contact with me on your behalf, or you can of course make direct contact with me. I will then arrange to meet with you and any family members or friends who you wish to include in the preparations, to fully discuss every aspect of the ceremony.
Together we will arrange a special service which your loved one would have been proud of, and one which will give you peace of mind in the months and years to come, knowing you bid them a very fitting final farewell.
Once I have drafted a suggested ceremony, I will share it with you for your approval and will of course make any suggested amendments.
On the day of the funeral, I will lead the ceremony and provide support to any family members or friends who may be making contributions – perhaps reading the eulogy or a special poem.
If you so wish, I will also provide a full keepsake copy of the service for your memory box.
If you feel that you would like to have your funeral ceremony written while you are still living, we can work together to create a script reflecting your exact requirements.
Once the script of the ceremony is approved, I will keep a copy and provide you with additional copies for your own personal records and to lodge with your chosen funeral director.
In addition to my funeral celebrant services, I am also available to help plan and conduct a memorial service for your loved one.
The services can take place anywhere, at any time, and as there are no time constraints, they can offer a more relaxed informal atmosphere with a joyful celebratory feel.
A ceremony to scatter your loved one’s ashes can be very comforting. It offers the opportunity for family and friends to gather together to say a very personal final farewell.
I am available to provide support to arrange and deliver a simple and fitting service, which will allow you to fully embrace and cherish the special occasion.
