Funeral Ceremonies - Wordways Ceremonies

As a trained funeral officiant, I create and deliver a personalised bespoke ceremony to celebrate the life of the deceased.

I offer:

memorial
funeral
cremation ceremonies.

When planning a ceremony I focus on the wishes of the deceased and the needs of the bereaved. The ceremony captures something of the true character of the loved one and provides a fitting tribute to the deceased.

The ceremony is thus the start of the process of closure, acceptance and healing for the bereaved.
