Hi Bill, thanks very much for your fitting tribute to Sandy. I received such positive feedback from all mourners, some of whom had not known him well, but they felt that they had learned so much about his life from your Eulogy. Thanks again.

Frequently Asked Questions
Within the comfort of your own home, I will spend as much time as necessary, listening to your wishes, hearing your stories, your memories and the significance of your grief, to gain a true sense of the person who has died. This information will then form the background to a truly unique Eulogy. This is also the time to discuss ceremony content including music and readings.
Following this, I will write the Eulogy and send it to you to ensure that you are happy with the style of the service and this also gives you the opportunity to add any details, comments or stories that have come to mind since our meeting. Once agreed I will also source the music chosen and will create a CD which will be delivered to the crematorium prior to the service to ensure that it has been tested in good time. I will also confirm the content of the service to your Funeral Director and include details of the music you have chosen.
I will liaise with your Funeral Director and the crematorium or Cemetery staff to ensure that all of the elements of your chosen service run smoothly. This includes playing of hymns should the organist be involved.
Do you have a Funeral Plan?
Pre-payment Funeral plans are extremely popular with those who have taken the step of ensuring that their family will not be faced with ever increasing funeral costs especially in time of grief. If you are one of these forward thinkers, why not take the time to leave your own message?
I will sit with you and through your own words thoughts and memories will compose a eulogy message that comes directly from you. This will then be written up and once agreed, added to your funeral plan documentation. Unlike a will this is a message directly from you to your friends and loved ones.
When the time comes, I will then work with your family to compose a eulogy which not only includes their memories of you but also your message to them, in your own words.
