Dear Pete,
You have been a rock to us since the first phone call. We all appreciated everything you did and the way you were so compassionate when taking about mum, it helped dad massively on the day. Also thank you for attending the wake, Mandy who read the poem (mum’s special friend) she attends funerals and mentioned how good you were and the clarity in which you spoke.
Thank you again for all you did.

Recommendation by Kevin Roberts via Co-op Yate
Can you please contact Peter to say that I and the family were very happy with the service provided. Peter brought the right amount of compassion and humour on the day to make it happen. In the prior meeting and on the day of the cremation he showed great sympathy to my mother and she was very pleased that he conducted the service. I am very happy to give my recommendation to anyone who needs a celebrant.
