Planning the ceremony

Planning the ceremony

Saying your personal goodbyes

I take the greatest care to co-create with you a personalised farewell.  My Patchwork logo represents the way in which I assemble the unique aspects of the deceased’s life into a bespoke ceremony.  I will guide you in choosing the form of the ceremony, including your choice of music, songs, hymns, readings, poetry, and any other special elements that you wish to include.

Creating a tribute

During our meeting together I will find out about the life of the one who has died with compassion, care, and sensitivity.  I will ask you about their childhood, young life into adulthood, any hobbies, interests and commitments, their relationships, special memories and anecdotes and anything that captures the individual essence of them. 

A personalised ceremony

Every ceremony is designed to honour, celebrate, and remember the one who has died with dignity and respect, and provide comfort for those left behind.  I will lead it in a calm, dignified, and professional manner and in a way that gives you space to focus on your personal farewells.
