After my family decided to hold a celebration of life for my Mum instead of a traditional funeral, I knew there was only one person I wanted to conduct it. I have had the privilege of knowing Christine for many years and I knew I needed and wanted her compassionate, calm and gentle manner to help us all through a very reflective and unique family involved ceremony.

Christine sat down with us and went through every part, what we wanted, running order and calmed our nerves on the day, even printing my speech out in large letters. Making it so much easier to read (something I never thought of) and was also ready to take over at anytime if I felt I couldn’t finish it. (We pre planned the look I would give her) She helped my daughter and friends when they sung a beautiful tribute, telling them that she had the back up track if it got to much and filled the very impromptu gap when the slide show won’t work, with huge professionalism and grace and a touch of humour, which reflects our family beautifully. Most of all, when she spoke about my Mum she incapsulated in words the warm, funny, shining star she was. I can’t thank Christine enough, she truly is magnificent at her job and makes everyone feel valued and heard at a time when you can feel very lost and numb. Thank you 🫶
