People at this difficult time need to be treated with respect and sensitivity. Every person is an individual and the same goes for a funeral ceremony.
People may feel overwhelmed at the prospect of writing about their loved one or deciding what music or readings should be used. They can also feel confused or unsure about the ceremony itself and want a caring professional to help guide them through the intricacies of the day.

Importantly, they will want a celebrant whom can offer a caring, sympathetic service, who will respect their wishes and ensure the funeral is a fitting tribute to the departed.

Poetry and readings can be a fitting way to remember those who have passed on and are often a fantastic way of articulating our emotions at this time. Many people have found this site very useful when looking for a poem

I normally work at both Southampton Crematorium and the Wessex Vale Crematorium in Bubb Lane, West End, though I am willing to travel to other crematoria, if you need me to.
