Changes in Funeral and Celebrant Services

While I continue to assist families with traditional services, I am also serving people who request more personalized and spiritual services, and there is an expanding gap between the time of death and the time that the service is scheduled. Why am I experiencing these changes as a Funeral Celebrant? Well, many people are choosing cremation, so the sense of urgency in decision making has changed. Also, people are geographically dispersed, there are economic challenges and there are more complicated grief issues. Your funeral celebrant is also a resource. I would encourage you to have the conversation with your celebrant sooner, rather than later, in order to receive the greatest benefit.
