“Peter delivered a beautifully crafted service that reflected the father, grandfather and partner who we all loved and treasured so very much. He helped to make an extremely difficult and sad time easier to deal with through his compassionate, kind and professional approach. We have received so many wonderful comments about the service and Peter’s delivery of it. We will be forever grateful to him for enabling us to celebrate the life of the greatest man in our lives.” 5/5

“Pete was amazing. I felt my dad’s service was in safe hands right from our first telephone call. Pete took the time to really get to know my dad, looking through family photos and discussing my dad’s life, outlook and beliefs. Once he had completed the tribute to dad I was given several opportunities to read and suggest any alterations. I would recommend Pete as a celebrant for any occasion – his kindness and empathy was very much appreciated at a difficult time.” 5/5

“I’ve had so many lovely comments about the service, with a number of them saying it was the best funeral ever that they had been to, which I really think were genuine comments, and not just the platitudes people give at these events, as I don’t think people would say that lightly. Everyone really enjoyed Peter’s input, praising his delivery and the content, and he struck just the right tone with it. We were so grateful, he really helped, yet again (he did our father’s funeral, and my mother specifically requested Peter to do hers) to guide us through the process. I actually described him as the funeral equivalent of a wedding planner.” 5/5

“We are so glad that Peter was our chosen humanist. He helped us all as a family incredible amounts. Made us all feel at ease and answered our many questions we had. My mum has such an amazing life and so many memories with so many people, which meant Pete had such a long script to write but he pulled it off amazingly. Pete made sure every special memory many people had given us was said and explained. We would definitely recommend Pete to anyone!” 5/5

“Thank you Pete, you were amazing, and really helped make the day feel special. Mum would have liked you! I wish you all the best for the future, keep doing what you’re doing. You were made to be a celebrant!” … “Pete did an amazing job from start to finish. From our first meeting with him, I knew he was the right celebrant for my mum’s funeral. We wanted to make it all about mum’s favourite music and Pete was in a reggae band, and used to be a music teacher, so his appreciation for music shone through. He had a lovely calming presence, nothing was too much. He was clear with what the process was, and was great at getting back to us. He led the service perfectly. We can’t thank him enough.” 5/5

“Thank you so much for the lovely tribute – so lovely that you had garnered plenty of interesting pieces of an equally interesting and complete jigsaw. Everyone attending said what a refreshingly upbeat and informative account of Dad’s life you crafted from the avalanche of information we bombarded you with!! Thank you so much again, Peter, it was a very special service which brought everyone together. Lots of the attendees at Dad’s funeral asked about how that lovely genuine service is accessed. So, as said, it was certainly something that resonated with many in the congregation. It was so important to hear so much about Dad being shared in a lovely celebratory testimonial. Thank you so much, again, Peter – you definitely did Dad proud!” 5/5

“Peter was so friendly and likeable. We felt a great relief that he was going to be there to conduct the service. He listened and understood our feelings and memories of my husband and put in a lot of work to produce a useful draft, which we were able to edit. On the day he read the script with great sensitivity – in the end we felt the service had been just as we wanted it to be.” 5/5

We used Peter for my husband’s service, he listened to our wishes and included everything we had asked him for, to personalise the service to show the person my husband had been during his life.

“Everyone really enjoyed listening to all the stories about Mum’s life, and we have Peter to thank for putting it all together and delivering so eloquently. Yesterday really felt like a wonderful celebration and really quite an enjoyable experience, which is not what we were expecting. Peter made the whole process as painless and easy as possible, and for that we are extremely grateful.” 5/5

“I feel we were so fortunate to get Peter to take my father’s funeral. I found it difficult to talk about my father as I was so upset, and not looking forward to it at all, but talking to Peter was actually an uplifting experience, as was the funeral itself. I felt he wrote a very good eulogy for my father because he understood him, and my father would have been very pleased. ‘Jolly good’ my dad would have said.” 5/5

“We found it so reassuring to have Peter support us through the process after our father’s death, not just in creating the tribute, but assisting with the music choices and the format of the event. We also felt great empathy with him, and that he really ‘got’ our father, such that he created a lovely, and long celebration of his life, which really captured him and his extraordinary life. We have since had so many lovely comments about how good the service was, with many expressing the wish that they would like such an event for themselves. Thank you so much Peter.” 5/5

“Peter delivered a beautiful service that I know my mother would have approved of, as it was a true celebration of the wonderful mother that she was. Peter had captured this beautifully and although it was very sad occasion it was also quite uplifting and provoked so many happy memories. So a heartfelt thank you to Peter.” 5/5

“Peter was able to guide us through the whole process… Our meeting with him to discuss the tribute went extremely well and his questions in just the right places collected many memories together. Once he had put together the draught we were able to make any changes we saw fit and add some extra detail. This resulted in a very personal tribute and the feeling that, although they had never met, Peter knew my father. We can’t thank him enough.” 5/5

Peter made the whole process as pain free as possible. From the first meeting he put us at ease and made such an effort to get the most information on our loved one as possible.
