CELEBRATION OF LIFE

MEMORIAL SERVICES
For All Faiths
As an Interfaith Minister I work with people to co-create a personal Memorial Service that is a Celebration of the Life of the loved one who has passed. Whatever your faith tradition, or if you do not have one, I will spend time with the family to gather information that will then be crafted into a service that reflects the person - who they were, what they loved, and how they will be remembered. Songs and readings and rituals can be incorporated into the service - either from the family and/or I can offer suggestions.
A TRIBUTE TO A LOVED ONE WHO HAS PASSED
The best tribute we pay to a loved one
when they die
is to honestly remember them
for the person they were.
This is to say about them, yes!
You were your own person.
You were unique.
How you chose to love your life
was not without consequence.
You mattered.
You made a difference for your community,
your friends, and your family.
Now that your life has ended,
we honor the life you chose to live –
in all its sparkle and all its shadows.
We celebrate your uniqueness.
And we freely give you our love,
because you loved us too.

D'Vorah sat and talked to us for hours and then brought poems, verses, and an outline for the service. All of the words she offered had Ben's spirit in them. She delivered the service and the words in an incredibly professional and caring way." Pauline B.
