Pastoral & Speaking Services
Celebration of Life Service – Cost: $530
Includes meeting with the family, writing the eulogy, and facilitating the service.
It is a way of acknowledging the life of the person who died. It means applauding their life and rejoicing in the fact that they lived.
By holding this ceremony after the remains have been cared for, we together can ensure you plan an event that reflects the life your loved one lived.
My goal and role as an officiant of the Ceremony of Life is to provide a memorial or funeral service that touches everyone present with an understanding of who the person was that died and what they lived for.
I do this with a series of questions I ask of the family and those closest to the person who has passed. Then I write up a eulogy to be approved by those asked, fitting of the person who has passed.
This can include a favorite or meaningful poem chosen by the family. And I will facilitate the service, including others who may wish to share a story or have something to say as per the needs of the loved ones.
