What families say about funeral celebrants trained by green fuse
“Thank you so much for all you have done in making Mum’s ‘farewell’ services so dignified, warm and appropriate. You understood immediately what we wanted and showed enormous empathy in your manner and your style of writing and delivery. We couldn’t have wished for a better Celebrant!”
“As you can understand I never dreamed that I would have to be doing this for my son at his age of 27, but from the moment you came to our home you put us at rest and made the funeral look so different – rather than frightening, a celebration.”
“Although it was a funeral it was not at all sombre and your eulogy captured the essence of what my Mum was about. You really did make it the loveliest, happiest funeral I have ever been to and many people commented on this tone which ran throughout. It’s weird but it has taken away much of the fear of death for me – it is another part of life therefore she has just moved on. With much thanks and love.”
“It was a beautiful funeral. Thank you.”
“I wanted to sincerely thank you for the reading at my mother’s funeral which I found to be very fitting and appropriate. My mother was not religious and would have been pleased with the service. Many people later told me that there were many aspects of my Mum’s life they had not known about and enjoyed learning more about her.”
“Thank you, that was a beautiful and fitting service, just how my son would have wanted. You have made me feel so much better listening to all the things you said about him and how he was so loved by everyone.”
“Our family and Dad in particular thought the ceremony totally fitting and your words fully appropriate. You wonderfully captured the spirit of my Mum. It takes a talent to be able to sense a person’s soul. Friends of my Mum commented similarly and as you could see were moved to tears. I think it makes it easier to move on and focus on the future knowing Mum was laid to rest as she derived and as you said in closing, her spirit will always be with us. Huge thanks for making what can be difficult times so comforting and memorable in such a positive way.”
“A huge thank you for directing and helping us organise such a lovely service for our Dad. We couldn’t have asked for anything more; for us it was perfect. Thank you for bringing it all together in such a professional, caring and sensitive way and for guiding us through such a difficult period.”
“We would like to thank you so much for the lovely service you gave for my Mum. It was a gentle loving tribute to Mum which was just how she was herself .”
