" a caring and thoughtful
way to say goodbye "
We are never quite prepared for end of life and everything that goes with it. 
Likened to an emotional roller-coaster there is so much to deal within a relatively short space of time before the funeral service.

 Let us share some of the burden, leaving the actual arrangements in the capable hands of your chosen funeral director and ourselves.

Together we will work closely to take care of your loved one and arrange a truly unique end of life Celebration.

Your wishes and your creation of a sincere and caring way to close this chapter of a life remembered with dignity and with Love.

I would definately reccomend Gordon Cooke of Celestial-Celebrant.After I lost my darling husband in 2013, Gordon came to my home and helped me so much with arranging the funeral service at what was a devastating time for me.

He was soi helpful and caring and the service was exactly as i wanted it to be.

I would not hesitate in reccomending Gordon should you find the need for a celebrant.

Love never leaves

“ There is a leaf on every tree for every soul above...

In spring they thrive and flourish....

In autumn they fall and perish....

Yet they return year on year

A reminder of their Love "
