“I just wanted to say thank you for yesterday’s service.
It was a fitting celebration of her life. I have had so many people come up to me and comment on what a lovely service it was.
Heartfelt thanks from all of the family”.

“Lisa, Thank you for your time and work that went into the service for our dad. It was delivered perfectly and is another memory we will cherish”.

“Hi Lisa, I wanted to say thank you for your wonderful funeral service for Mom. Many of my cousins commented positively on the eulogy. To me, you sounded as if you knew my Mom.  Thank you again”.

“Lisa was amazing. She met at our house before to plan and on the day of the Funeral she spoke with eloquence and humour also, which worked well”.

“Lisa’s compassion, guidance and support was amazing. She really listened to the family and perfectly encapsulated the essence of our dad. Everyone said it was as though she had known him for years. Such a fitting tribute to an incredible man. Thank you, Lisa, you made the darkest time of our lives a little brighter “✨️

“We would like to thank you so much firstly for the wonderful service, your kind nature and the thoughtfulness that you put into it. Also, the effort you put into wearing pink. It was so lovely of you. You made a very sad time in our life as beautiful as our precious mom. It was perfect”.

“Hi, Lisa. I just wanted to thank you for such a beautiful service today. Everyone was so impressed by how you captured the person they all knew in different ways from great-grandchildren to oldest friends, it was perfect.
The music you helped us choose also reflected her favourites. I was holding it together until The Rose came on…that did it for me…I think you chose that one!!
None of us will ever forget the service and how beautifully you carried out the tribute so thank you, you were so poised and composed yet full of emotion…I honestly don’t know how you do it.
Thanks again and best wishes”.

“Dear Lisa,

I can’t thank you enough for such a wonderful service yesterday, everyone remarked how well you managed to depict her life and in such beautiful terms.

Thank you for sharing the presentation script with me. I will treasure it for always”.

“Hi, Lisa, 

I wanted to send you a message to express our sincere gratitude for the wonderful service you delivered for Dad on Thursday.
From myself, Nan and the rest of the family – we are so grateful for everything you did for us at this terribly sad time.

From the very first meeting, the ongoing liaison, thoughtful check-ins throughout, and then of course the delivery on the day – you helped create a service for Dad that we could really be proud of and I have no doubt he’d of approved too!

Many of those who attended also commented on how well the service was delivered and how beautifully it captured the essence of Dad and his life, which was completely down to you. 

Being head-to-toe in his favourite colour blue was a wonderfully touching tribute too. 

I do believe in scenarios like this you meet the people you’re meant to meet to help you through, and you have certainly been that person for us, Thank you.

Thank you again for everything, your kindness and dedication to your role really shone through”. 

“Lisa, We both wanted to say a massive thank you for everything you have done for us. Arranging a Celebration of Life Service for our son is the hardest thing we have ever had to do. You have walked us through it, step by step, helping us through the whole process. You spent the time to find out exactly what we wanted and to get to know us and more importantly our son.  Nothing was too much for us to ask, even when you had to wait for tributes that arrived the day before. 

This meant that every part of the service was perfect for him and exactly what we wanted. Throughout the service, you took great care of us. From the hug when we arrived up to the hug when you left. You went above and beyond by wearing a Green Day T-shirt – that was just the perfect touch.

We can never thank you enough for giving him the send-off he deserved. Everyone has commented how perfect the service was for him and how lovely you were. 

Thank you for everything”.

“From our very first meeting with Lisa, we knew she was the right person to deliver my husband’s tribute. She explained every detail to us so we fully understood the role she was going to undertake and in one word to describe her we can honestly say, she was ‘MAGNIFICENT‘ she is a credit to Humanists UK. I myself have given instructions for my funeral service to be a humanist one (let’s hope I have Lisa as my celebrant)”.

“Lisa was very sensitive to our wishes and ensured we had the ceremony that we envisaged”.

“Thank you so much for your ceremony on behalf of all the family. It was warm and beautiful. The day was very hard but we really appreciated your sensitivity and your support. Thank you again Lisa”.

“Lisa encapsulated every aspect of my dad as a person, she emulated his personality, his loves, his way of life completely. Everyone that attended said what a beautiful service, very fitting to Dad and most of them expressed that’s the type of funeral they would like when their time comes”!

“Thank you so much for your kindness and expertise at the funeral yesterday. You made a difficult day easier”.

“We just wanted to say thank you for all the work you put into yesterday and how lovely your tribute was. You captured the essence of him and his relationship with ****** really well from a short talk with us, and it all went just as we’d hoped.

“We’ve had emails from people thanking us and saying how much they enjoyed the day, which was unexpected given the circumstances, but kind of our intention in a way. We wanted it to be uplifting and with your help it really was”.

“Thank you very much for conducting the funeral yesterday.
We were very pleased with it,
so were many others who commented what a lovely service it was.
Some said that it was the best funeral they had been to”.

“Lisa, Thank you so much for everything. You are and were, amazing!”

“Just wanted to say a big thank you for your lovely service at my dad’s funeral on Wednesday.
Everyone said what a nice tribute it was, all about the person and their life like it should be.
Most importantly, Mom really thought it was a touching tribute, thanks to you and said what a wonderful job you did”.

“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the beautiful service you delivered.
Many people who attended had never been to a humanist/ celebration funeral before and all commented on how lovely it was.
They loved the stories and all came out knowing Mom more.
Thank you again
It meant so much”.

“Dear Lisa,
We only met briefly on Friday but we did want to say a personal ‘thank you’.
Your delivery and pace were exactly right and we could hear every word. So important when some elderlies are hard of hearing!
Wearing the ‘team colours’ was a lovely personal touch too. Thank you”.

“From our first Zoom meeting, I felt we were in accord with the way the Service deserved to be in celebration of his life and work, and to honour him. You have brought together in the full tribute all our suggested thoughts and wishes.
We have watched the Webcast and realised how very professional and sensitive the whole process felt throughout.
Although you did not know him personally, his character shone through the Service and was a fitting tribute to someone who was admired and loved by so many.
With our grateful thanks and deep appreciation”.

“Dear Lisa
I just wanted to add my thanks for all you did to make the funeral service so fitting. From the first online meeting we were reassured, and on Friday you took every care that the service honoured him.
I also appreciated your consideration in speaking to each of us who were reading, ensuring we knew you’d read if we were unable to. You balanced personal support and professional celebrant very sensitively. You also acknowledged those who have a religious faith while respecting the humanist frame of the service, and for this we are especially grateful”.
