Celebrate Life Malta

Celebrate Life Malta is a family-owned funeral organisation hub with a modern touch.
(1)

Our mission is to provide a professional service at affordable prices and to offer community support services. We understand that death is a delicate and sensitive topic, none of us want to face or talk about. Unfortunately, everyone has an encounter with this sad experience sometime in their lives. We strongly believe that funerals are an occasion to celebrate a life well-lived. We will take care of everything you need during one of the most vulnerable moments in your life, assisting you in creating a celebration as wonderful as the life that is being honoured. Celebrate Life Malta will take care of every detail, making the process for you as effortless as possible. In this way, you can focus on the dearly departed person who is being commemorated and celebrated. Celebrate Life Malta offers you the opportunity of personalising a funeral to reflect the religion, background or any other specifics that you wish your loved one to be commemorated by. We also specialise in bereavement services, thus making us professionally qualified to understand your moment of grief. It would be an honour for us to be given the opportunity to assist you in one of your moments of need.

My job introduced me to a wonderful family in their hardest days, and today I had the honour of being invited to one of their happiest. I first met this family when I cared for the bride's beloved grandparents, and in the journey through grief I built such a close connection with the bride's mother that she invited me to share in her daughter's joyful day 👰

This is the beauty of my work: walking alongside families in their hardest moments, and sometimes, being welcomed to witness their happiest ones too. Today, I’m simply grateful to sit back, watch love celebrated, and be reminded of the preciousness of life ❤️

𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐉𝐚𝐤𝐞 — 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐘𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐎𝐧

Today marks one year since we had the honour of organising the beautiful celebration of life for Jake — a young boy who touched the hearts of all Malta and Gozo 💙

It was one of the most moving moments we’ve ever been part of, made possible by the love and support of sponsors, volunteers, and a community that came together in unity🙏

Jake’s father once told me that when he feels down, he finds comfort in rewatching the funeral. That has stayed with me — a reminder that a well-crafted farewell can bring peace long after the day itself.

Through this journey, I also gained two special friends — Mariska and Josie, Jake’s incredible parents. Their strength continues to inspire me.

💛 Forever in our hearts, Jake 💛

Last June, Charles, standing front right, carried his father on his final journey.

This Saturday, 6th September, at 08:30, we will gather at San Ġwann Parish Church to celebrate his own remarkable life ⛪

Charles Zarb, 46, was a dedicated member of the Armed Forces of Malta, embodying the resilience and discipline of a soldier. Even while hospitalised, he pushed himself to walk 22 km a day, refusing to let his illness define him. I clearly recall our first conversation at hospital. He was already gravely unwell but still full of spirit. Helping him organise his dad's funeral while he was so deeply affected by his own illness was heartbreaking. Even more so was the call I recently received to inform me of his passing 💔

His life ended far too soon. To me, he was not just a client. Together with his wife, he became a friend, one whose courage, devotion, and determination will always stay with me.

Rest in peace, Charles, reunited with your dad ❤️

Sometimes the best decisions are the unplanned ones ✈️

What was meant to be a little holiday for my mum and my boys to visit my sister in The Netherlands turned into an impromptu trip for me too, and I’m so glad I decided to join them for a few days.

My mum has always been my rock, and I’m forever grateful for her love and support ❤️ Watching my boys make memories with their grandma and cousins has been a real gift, and I know they’ll treasure these moments long after the holiday is over.

I’m now on my way back home, while they’re still enjoying a few more days of fun together before returning later this week.

Going through the photos we took and chose to share this one. Max isn’t in it, but I couldn’t resist sharing it as Sam, who rarely agrees to photos, joined me for this one 🩵

A reminder to me, and perhaps to you, to grab those opportunities when they arise, because sometimes the unexpected moments bring the greatest joy.

It’s been an unusually busy summer for us; this time of year is typically quieter, but this summer has been different. Tomorrow, we are honoured to care for four families as they say goodbye to their loved ones 🤍

We want to assure every family, and everyone who places their trust in us, that each funeral is equally important. No matter how busy we are, every service is treated with the same care, dignity, and attention it deserves.

It’s our privilege to walk with you during life’s most difficult moments, and we never take that for granted ❤️

We are honoured to organise the celebration of Mary Muscat’s life, known as 𝐓𝐚' 𝐉𝐚𝐜𝐲 in her hometown of Mellieha.

Mary was a humble woman with a passion for cooking and gardening. What deeply moved me was the overwhelming support from her family and community during my visit. Aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends gathered to stand by Angie, Mary’s only daughter, who devoted herself entirely to her mother’s care. Despite the difficult time Angie is going through, especially after losing her father at a young age, her family and friends ensured she was never alone 🫂

During our meeting, a dear friend shared something that truly resonated with me. She said that whenever she has good news to share, Mary was the first person she turned to. Mary was open to others’ happiness and genuinely celebrated their good fortune without envy❤️

We invite you to join us in celebrating Mary’s life on 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟐𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐭 𝟑𝐩𝐦 𝐚𝐭 𝐌𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐡𝐚 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐡 𝐂𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡 ⛪

Rest in peace, Mary🕊️

I’ve just returned from a much-needed holiday with my family, a rare and welcome pause 🪷 I enjoyed watching people laugh, have a good time, dance, and sing 🪭 These are scenes that are a world away from my daily reality. My work is rooted in grief and sadness, and it's not often I get to witness such light-hearted, joyful moments.

𝑂𝑛𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑜𝑑𝑑𝑒𝑠𝑡 𝑏𝑢𝑡 𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑡 𝑟𝑒𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔𝑠? Not wearing black for several days in a row! Most people don’t think twice about the colours they wear, but for me, stepping out of my professional uniform felt like a quiet, personal celebration of life 🌈

The break couldn’t have come at a better time. The weeks leading up to it were especially heavy, marked by several tragic losses, suicides, and the deaths of young people 🥀 These are the kinds of moments that linger, even after the services are done.

Grateful for the time, for my family, and for the chance to return with a fuller heart ❤️

A final farewell to 𝐇𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐲 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐚, aged 66 — as he passes by the place he loved so deeply ❤️

Today, we honour not just the life of a wonderful man, but also his dedication, his passion, and the quiet pride he took in his work. This was more than just a workplace to Henry — it was a part of who he was. Fittingly, his final journey took him past the place where he gave so much of himself, and where he is remembered with love and respect.

Rest in peace, Henry. Your presence will be missed, but your memory lives on in every heart you touched. 🤍🕊️

The past couple of weeks have been among the most emotionally challenging we’ve experienced at Celebrate Life Malta. We’ve been entrusted with the delicate and heartbreaking task of honouring the lives of several young people, lives full of promise, lost far too soon 💔

One story in particular captured the heart of a nation, that of a young man who went missing, prompting a wave of public hope and support. Tragically, 𝐉𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐜𝐞's story ended in sorrow. It is with deep humility that I have been asked to help guide 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞, 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝟏𝟖𝐭𝐡 𝐉𝐮𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐭 𝟗:𝟑𝟎𝐚𝐦 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐌𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐍𝐚𝐱𝐱𝐚𝐫 ⛪

As a funeral director, and as someone who has studied thanatology, I’ve come to understand that these moments, while painful, are also opportunities for healing, remembrance, and connection. My studies have shaped the way I approach each celebration, not as an end, but as a deeply personal honour to walk alongside families in their grief, and to help give voice to the love that endures.

To all those who have lost someone recently, especially the young, know that you are not alone ❤️ May this celebration bring comfort to his loved ones and strength to those still navigating their own silent struggles 🕊️

Take care of yourselves and each other 🫂

We are accustomed to a hearse leaving Mater Dei with family cars following behind, but this morning’s corteo was truly different. Sonia (48), whose life we celebrated today, had a deep love for the natural world and animals. In honor of her passions, the family chose to have her coffin transported by 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞-𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐰𝐧 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐠𝐞 rather than a traditional hearse 🐴

It was a truly beautiful sight to see the majestic horses leading the corteo to Gwardamangia Parish Church ⛪ There’s something timeless and touching about witnessing these noble creatures guide the way— a gentle nod to the past, when funerals in Malta, particularly up until the 1960s, often featured horses instead of motorized hearses.

I felt that this was a sentimental reminder of the timeless beauty of life and the everlasting bond between nature and tradition ❤️

Rest in peace Sonia 🕊️
