“I just wanted to take a moment & thank you for the most wonderful service you conducted for —- on Friday. We felt so comfortable with you, you made the process of planning the celebration so “painless” and you really reminded us to focus on what we love, not what we lost.
You are so incredibly polished & professional, but so wonderfully personal also, the perfect blend of supporting a family & organising a most appropriate tribute.
You are so incredibly gifted at what you do & guiding loved ones through the most difficult moments can never be easy, but you do it with compassion, support & professionalism. I can never fully articulate how grateful we are for facilitating the most perfect & fitting send off for —-, he really would’ve liked you.
We truly are forever grateful.
Warmest regards”
“I cannot thank you enough for the beautiful job you did with my Mother —-‘s service.
Your professionalism, compassion and sensibility helped us feel at ease and did not go unnoticed by all that attended.
We have had comments from everyone that it was a perfect send-off for my mother and I especially loved your sincere reading of the poem to finish the service; I cry each time I watch it.
Thank you, Simon. ”
