<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>HOW I CAN HELP</strong></span></span>

<span style="font-size: 14pt;">I feel very privileged to be able to support families during their</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">time of loss. My role as a trained Funeral Celebrant is to conduct</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">funerals for families in English or French who wish to have a</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">personalized and individualized funeral ceremony.
</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">I can also do pre-planning funeral ceremonies in advance,</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">whether someone is facing a terminal diagnosis or would simply</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">like to provide their family with guidance. There is no greater gift</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">you can give your family than knowledge of how you would like to</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">be honoured.
</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">I will listen to your stories and transform them into a personal and</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">relatable one-of- a-kind ceremony that will add meaning and depth</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">to your life’s ordinary and extraordinary moments.
</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">There are many ways to do this such as a candle or sand</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">ceremony, balloon release, collage photos, photo DVD,</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">personalized floral spray, bookmarks, “In Loving Memory Stones’,</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">Memory Jars, Shadow box and any other ideas that would be</span>
<span style="font-size: 14pt;">memorable for you and those attending the service.
</span>
