FUNERALs & memorial services
Firstly may I offer my deepest condolences and sympathies to you and your family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.
The loss of a loved one is a time of great sorrow, but also a time to honour their memory in the most personal and loving way possible.
I believe it is very important to listen to the family and to use my own personal experiences to ensure the funeral music is in accordance with those wishes.
