Funerals, Memorials and Graveside Services
The death of a loved one is a time for grieving, but also a time for celebrating and remembering the life that has been lost. I will talk to your family and work with funeral directors to create a memorial service specific to any spiritual need. I ensure a beautiful ceremony that honors the memory of those who have passed in whatever way is meaningful to you.
Meaningful doesn't always mean religious and I think everyone deserves to have their lives and deaths remembered in a way that is satisfying to the spirit, regardless of belief systems.
Ceremonies can range from full funerals to simpler memorial services and/or graveside rites. They are always thoughtful and bring honor to the departed while supporting the family in their grief.
I came to ministry because of an awful funeral I once attended and I never want to see another person's life and passing so mistreated and undervalued. I think every life is important and every death should be marked well.

Remembering Our Beloved Pets
Losing a beloved pet can feel as grievous as any other death. I'm glad to be support for you if you have to put your pet to sleep or to do a short ceremony of internment for their bodies or ashes. There is no charge for this service as long as you're local. (Greater New Bedford area, with exceptions.) I do this because it was so important for me to have support when I've had animal friends whose lives were cut short... and doesn't it always seem too short? I have a special place in my heart for those who love and care for the innocent and I think it is right to honor the passing of our animal allies who have loved us unconditionally and brought so much joy into our lives.
