Hi, I'm David
Funerals are not easy events. I recognise and acknowledge the feelings you may feel at a time you lose a loved one and yet need to plan a fitting funeral for them.
I endeavour to support you by working alongside you. I will help you to create a funeral ceremony (or memorial service) that is unique; reflecting the personality and life of your loved one whilst also recognising your grief.
With your loved one and your wishes at the heart of what we do, I will:
* Plan an appropriate ceremony with you
* Provide you with a draft programme of the ceremony for your approval
* If you wish me to, as a ‘narrator of your loved ones life’ I will compose a fitting tribute (approved by you) to read at the ceremony or support you to write your own.
* Provide you with copies of the ceremony afterward in a presentation pack
* Provide follow up support if required
It would be a privilege to support you to plan a unique ceremony for your loved one.

An Amazing Individual Who Performed an Amazing Service
David is a kind, caring, compassionate individual who helped us through a difficult time. He visited us at home and asked very detailed questions about my father and his life. He focuses on the person who has died, and gets to the core of what makes each one of us unique. He picked up on my father’s great sense of humour and that was reflected in the service.
We highly recommend David.
What a guy!
From the moment David walked into our home to discuss the funeral service of our mother he put us at so much ease which enabled us to discuss mum’s life in a very open manner as if he was a family member.
The very next day David sent us a draft copy of the funeral service he had prepared.
Reading it we were in joy and in tears as it described mum and her life in such a caring and loving way. We immediately accepted the draft copy in its entirety.
The funeral went so smoothly due to David’s accurate, caring delivery of the journey of mum’s life. We will always be grateful to him.
Absolutely lovely gentleman!
Thank you so much for the lovely service you did for my Aunty Elaine. All her family and friends were so grateful for your empathy and lovely words with an added bit your sense of humour! Everyone said what a lovely service it was and we know that Elaine would’ve been looking down and appreciating all of your words. Thanks again David it was a pleasure to have you lead the service!!
