The loss of a loved one
… can be one of life’s most profound and life changing experiences.
More than an ending though, funerals and
Life Celebrations are bridges of transition.
Consider that the words spoken and feelings experienced during the visitation and the
Celebration service help take us from the tragedy of a death to a place
of fond memory and deep appreciation for the person whose life we're remembering.
how we help
Once you've made arrangements with
a funeral home, call us.
We'll liaise with the Funeral Directors and meet
with your family personally in the days leading
up to the Service to gather life stories,
reflections and treasured memories in an
unhurried manner to ensure
accuracy, warmth and meaning.
Your family's Ceremony is treated as a unique
occasion to honour your loved one’s memory,
and the ceremony itself helps the grief process
occur naturally while saying goodbye.
our approach
We present a personalised, comforting and uplifting ceremony affirming the significance of your loved one’s life.
Whether your family chooses a religious, spiritual, or religiously neutral service, we are guided by the beliefs, traditions and customs of your family.
We believe a Life Remembrance Service should be a Celebration of your Loved One’s life with us, and should leave each person attending with the thought that they’ve participated in an event of very special meaning.
A Community Minister with a focus on Chaplaincy and Counselling, I’m an experienced, professional Celebrant whose presence helps put families at ease during difficult situations.
Working with funeral homes throughout Peel, Halton, Durham and the GTA, I’ve been trusted by many hundreds of families with the services of their loved ones since 2001.
Along the way, I’ve been gratified that funeral directors have asked me to present funeral services for their own families, and to solemnize their own marriages.
our background
difficult
circumstances
We are one of the few Ministers who serve families struggling with a loss arising from a traumatic, inflicted or intentional death, from a prenatal/perinatal loss, or from the death of a child.
Having lived through the loss of a child himself, Rev. Tim understands the myriad of emotions affecting families and helps guide them through the funeral process with the experience and empathy of a survivor.
