Grief can be consuming. A funeral or memorial service, although often difficult during a vulnerable time, is an important part of the grieving process.
Reflecting the strengths and milestones of a person’s life is a natural and beautiful way of marking a person’s time on this earth.
As a North Auckland funeral celebrant, it is an honour for me to be invited to help mark the end of a loved one’s life. In this role I am committed to working in a respectful, sensitive and empathetic manner to help weave together a ceremony that is personal, heartfelt and a fitting celebration of life.
You have personal choices around who you would like your celebrant to be. It is only right that you should feel comfortable with the celebrant who is charged with such an important role.
I am passionate about the use of words to reflect the integrity of the loved one being honoured and have resources to offer helpful advice to the bereaved families and friends.
“We never could have gotten through Dads funeral service without your kind, caring and dedicated support. In subsequent days and weeks after the service our family received an extraordinary amount of compliments on how appropriate and fitting the service was. This gave us comfort and I see this as a reflection of your wonderful guidance and leadership during such a tough and daunting time. Thanks once again.”
Arohanui, Tania
“Robyn, I cant believe you managed to take all our fragmented pieces of information and turn it into such a beautiful summary of mums life. The service was lovely, absolutely perfect and just what she would have liked.”
Thank you, Keri
“Thanks very much for such a professional and compassionate service you performed yesterday. So many people there commented to us that it was the nicest funeral they had been to, and we agree. Sheila couldn’t have asked for anything better.”
