Families have been very complimentary about the way I conduct a ceremony. Here’s a sample of comments I have received:

• ‘Beautifully thought through and organised.’
• ‘It was very comforting and we really appreciated that the whole thing went so smoothly.’
• ‘It was so appreciated, especially by my grandchildren who found the whole experience enlightening and not one that they were dreading.’
• ‘Thank you for bringing your ‘voice’ to our Mum’s ceremony. The wording is perfect and sums us all up.’
• ‘…  all the family thought you were absolutely brilliant and it was a wonderful service and they couldn’t have asked for better.’
• ‘Thanks for great work! This was tough nut to crack.’
• ‘You read beautifully, it was all perfect. Everyone said what a fine send-off it was.’
• ‘The ceremony was lovely, you captured her and her life perfectly.’
• ‘Thanks for this − it is beautiful and just what I wanted.’
• ‘… it has made all the difference to what is a tragically sad time.’
• ‘I can’t thank you enough.’
