Hi, I'm Kim
For many people a ‘religious’ funeral with hymns and prayers is simply not appropriate or just not something that the person who has died, or their family would want. This is where I come in, as fully trained, insured and accredited Celebrant. I care deeply about giving the person who has died, a sympathetic, appropriate, and unique ceremony. Every single funeral I conduct is special to me, they are all different and personal to the deceased and their family.
I will initially meet with you and possibly other people closely affected by the death, to talk about the options available, also to gather as much information as possible about the person that has died. We will talk about what sort of ceremony you would like, whether there is someone who would like to participate with a reading perhaps, and the type of music that you want played. Above all, it will be about the person that has died and the memories they leave behind, if possible, a celebration of that persons life.
I work at the various crematoriums, burial sites, and private venue’s for memorial ceremonies in Cornwall and Plymouth.

Humanist funerals
Humanist funerals, memorials and ash ceremonies are a fitting way to honour a unique life with warmth, sensitivity and meaning, but without reference to religion or an afterlife. They put the story of the person who has died at the heart of the ceremony, paying tribute to them and the legacy they leave, and provide an opportunity to bring people together, not just to share sadness but to celebrate a life lived.
