Testimonials

‘Our family wanted to honour my late father’s wishes by holding a Memorial Day that reflected his desire for celebration rather than a traditional, sombre funeral. We chose a day of joy for close family and friends, and James was the perfect host. With warmth, compassion, and a focus on keeping the atmosphere uplifting, James led us through the day beautifully.

He began with a heartfelt reading of Dad’s favourite poem as we scattered his ashes in the lake where he fished as a boy—a place deeply meaningful to all of us.

Afterward, we gathered at the venue to celebrate Dad’s life, and James orchestrated the event with care and grace. The highlight of the day was James’s eulogy, thoughtfully planned with our input. It captured Dad’s early life, career, and treasured memories—holidays, day trips, and humorous stories that brought smiles to everyone.

I wholeheartedly recommend James and his celebrant services to anyone looking to create a special and meaningful tribute for a loved one.’

‘We have had the pleasure of James officiating all our family funeral services over the years. He was perfect in organising, supporting delivering the service in a professional and personal manner. Thank you so much!’
