Dorset: Honouring a Life
with Meaning
Celebrating a life well-lived with ceremonies that touch the heart.



Saying Goodbye
​
My heartfelt condolences on your loss. Arranging a funeral or memorial service can feel overwhelming during a time of grief, and I'm here to offer support and guidance.
​
Saying goodbye is never easy, but a meaningful ceremony can provide comfort and solace, allowing you to honour a life lived and cherish the memories that remain. Choosing the right person to lead this tribute is an important decision, and I approach this responsibility with the utmost compassion and respect.
​
My services are a little different than most. I believe in the power of words to capture the essence of a life, weaving together stories, memories and sentiments into a heartfelt farewell.
​
From poignant readings to cherished anecdotes to personal tributes, I will work closely with you to create a ceremony that truly reflects the spirit of your loved one.
​
I also offer a bespoke Eulogy writing service for those who would like help finding the words to be spoken during a service. Read more about this here.


When we lose someone we love, we must learn not to live without them, but to live with the love they left behind.


Personalising A Funeral Service
In addition to officiating celebrations of life, funerals and memorial services, I also offer a dedicated eulogy and service writing service. If you prefer to have a family member or friend lead the service, or if you're seeking assistance in crafting a heartfelt tribute, I can provide beautifully written words that capture the essence of your loved one's life.
I can help you with:
-
Complete Funeral or Memorial Service Scripts: I'll work closely with you to understand your loved one's story, personality and values, crafting a complete service that reflects their unique spirit and offers comfort to those in attendance.
-
Eulogies: I can create a heartfelt and personalised eulogy that celebrates your loved one's life, highlighting their achievements, passions, and the impact they had on others.
-
Readings and Poems: I can help you select or write meaningful readings and poems that resonate with your loved one's personality and offer solace to those who mourn. See more about this here.
