Still celebrating life's journeys ❤️

Funeral Services - What to expect
After a few enquiries, I would like to clarify what a family would expect from me.

1. Unless you contact me directly, I will typically be passed your details from your funeral director. I will make first contact with you within 24 hours.

2. A family meeting will then be arranged for me to learn and address any questions or concerns you might have about the ceremony.

3. Together we will plan an appropriate order of service for your loved one, this includes assistance with choosing special readings, poems, music, visual tributes, hymns or prayers.

4. We will then have a detailed discussion about your loved one, including detailing their life history their likes and dislikes their hobbies and any special memories from which a tribute will be documented as part of the service.

5. Within 48 hours of the family meeting, I will craft a personalised ceremony and fitting tribute for your loved one. I will email you the first draft, allowing you to fact check and amend as required. Followed by a full written copy thereafter.

6. I'm always available by phone, email or text message if you need to speak to me.

7. Additional tokens of support can be given prior to service as a gift to the family from me. This includes twin hearts to be shared with the passed loved one and yourself or specific healing crystals which can be used to aid inner strength during grief.

8. The experience of a confident, empathetic delivery of service for your loved one, providing comfort, reflection and memories - a celebration of their life.❤️

9. Price is £180 included in your funeral directors costs.
Scattering or internment of ashes are available free of charge as part of the funeral service I provide.

Additional Services
Memorial ceremony to be decided dependent on content £50 - £100
Separate internment or scattering of ashes £50

Another beautiful poem from Becky Hemsley

Don’t wait til I’m gone
And then stand up to speak
About all the things
That you loved about me

Don’t sing all my praises
Through all of your tears
When I am no longer
Beside you to hear

Don’t leave all that love
Like a secret unsaid
But tell me tomorrow
Or right now instead

And I’ll tell you too
Of the things I admire
About who you are
And how much you inspire

I’ll speak from my heart
Whilst you’re still here to know
“You are” not “you were”
Or “it used to be so”

I’ll speak of your light
Whilst you’ll still hear the words
And not leave that love
In the darkness, unheard

So tell me tomorrow
Or right now - don’t wait
Because we don’t know
When it might be too late

Because we don’t know
When our time might be up
And we need to hear - while we are here -
How we’re loved

Very important questions to ask. Some funeral directors do vary in what they can offer

Think I've found a new poem ❤️

My darling, when you visit me
Please promise me you’ll leave
A little gift each time you’re here
To help me as I grieve

Please scatter little feathers
Bright as winter’s whitest snow
Beside the blue forget-me-nots
As they begin to grow

Please teach that friendly cardinal
The songs you loved to sing
And keep a group of snowdrops
Blooming all the way through spring

Leave me lots of pennies
That I’ll pick up from the ground
And still the stormy, wilful wind
Each time you come around

Because the coins and cardinals
Will help me know you’re near
They’ll be the hug that holds me
When your arms cannot be here

So darling, when you visit me
Please leave a little sign
Bring presents in your presence
That you plan to leave behind

So when I find a penny
In your favourite walking spot
And see white snowdrops growing
Next to blue forget-me-nots

And when I smell your scent
Or see a rainbow up above
I’ll know you’ve come to visit
And to wrap me in your love

Poem of the week.
This is probably one of my favourite poems from my favourite poet. A lot of my families find great comfort from this particular poem. It is my trusted go to, if families are not sure of what they want. It is about the signs you see which give you comfort. This is the abridged version. The full poem is even more beautiful..... enjoy ❤️

I know a few families that have done this. They really felt honoured in being involved in such an intimate detail for their loved ones.
