If you have any more, please don’t hesitate to make contact
-
I’ll work closely with families to create and deliver a personalised ceremony which reflects the life, loves and traditions of the person who has died.
The ceremony can be religious or non-religious. I’ll seek guidance from the family as to their wishes, and will meet and talk with them, in order to write a bespoke celebration of the individuals life
I’ll lead the service on the day of the funeral and will deliver myself, or invite family members to offer their tributes and the eulogy.
I’ll work closely with the funeral director to ensure that everything is in place for the day
-
Yes, there are no restrictions on the religious content of a funeral.
-
Yes, Natural burials can be held in woodlands, meadows or conservation burial grounds, in peaceful surroundings where families and the individual may have agreed beforehand.
I will be happy to work closely with the funeral director and ground owners to arrange this.
-
The length of time can vary slightly between crematoriums but the average is around 30 minutes.
Burials can be longer depending on the structure of the ceremony. For example there may be a church service beforehand then a shorter ceremony at the graveside.
Kathy will create a ceremony which runs smoothly from one part to the next, so that families don’t feel hurried
-
From the time of booking I will start preparing the ceremony, by contacting the family and making an initial appointment convenient to them.
From then on I will start writing, and once complete will give to the family for approval.
I will also liaise with the Funeral Director to confirm music, venue, timings, readings and programme.
In all, preparation will take several hours as each ceremony is written from scratch and not copied from a template
-
Yes, and it can include as many elements as you wish..Happy memories as well as sad, musical tributes, poetry and readings and pivotal life moments from the life the individual who has died.
Celebrations of Life can be held anywhere, allowing for total flexibility regarding timing, and a far more relaxed atmosphere
-
I will visit the family wherever they feel most comfortable.
It may be at home, or it could be in their loved one’s favourite place, a cafe, park, beach, wherever they family find it easier to talk
What matters is that the family have the opportunity to share their best memories which would have made their loved one proud.
