<span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><em>Where does one begin when a loved one passes?
What is the process?
Who do you call?
What needs do be done?</em></strong></span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">These pertinent questions come up for family members when a loved one passes away.  A sense of of being overwhelmed can take over as a family or friends are never fully prepared for a loss. My role is to journey with you to help design a funeral, memorial service or graveside service that will honor your loved ones.</span>

&nbsp;

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">I will schedule a time to meet with your family to share memories, anecdotes and special moments in your loved ones life. The essence of the service will be based upon the remembrances of the family.  I will consult with you to prepare a service that reflects and memorializes the life of your loved one. That might be through special music, songs, ceremonies,poems or visual tributes. I will also compose a eulogy that will reflect who your loved one was, their gifts, strengths, and what they meant to others. It will be a sharing of the heart.  We will work in partnership to make the service a memorable one.</span>
