About Gordon Cooper

In a Humanist ceremony people are what are important and we put people and only people at the heart of that ceremony.

Working together with the family and loved ones of the deceased I will help create a ceremony which is as unique as the life it celebrates.

There are no hard and fast rules regarding the content and style of a funeral and this allows you to make the ceremony truly personal. You may have a very clear idea of what you would like but if not I will help you by using my experience to make suggestions of suitable  music and readings etc.

You can be as active in the delivery of the funeral as you would like, perhaps giving a reading or leading parts of the ceremony yourself. Alternatively you can leave it all to me. It is entirely up to you. It is my job to help you get the funeral you want for your loved one.

“Many of our friends were really touched by your service Gordon, one saying you spoke about Marc as though you knew him as well as we did and were a long standing friend, and many saying “that’s the way I want to go”.

“We all said afterwards that it was exactly what we had hoped for and that it really could not have been better. Thank You Gordon”.

If you have just lost a loved one and are thinking about celebrating their life with a non-religious funeral, please get in touch. You can contact me on: 07795 071 818 or by email: gordoncooper74@yahoo.com .

I work primarily around Devon and the South West although I am happy to travel on occasion. I am part of the local Humanist UK celebrants’ network. Between us we can ensure that a humanist celebrant is available whenever required.
