Funerals and Memorial Services for People and Animals
I am deeply honored to help you celebrate and honor the lifetime of your loved one, whether that loved one was in human form or animal body. As an interfaith minister, I conduct individualized services that are meaningful and inspiring to you, whatever or wherever that may be.

Memorial and Funeral Services, Secular or Religious
A memorial service is usually conducted without a physical body, although there may be ashes. A funeral is conducted at the time of burial. Many people chose to have a memorial service after a funeral, or cremation, which may allow more people to attend and which may match your family's wishes more appropriately. I am honored to help you create a traditional religous observance or an original and unique event.

Pre-planned Service
Many people today are interested in planning the celebration of their life in colorful detail. You might want your friends to gather for a hike through the mountains, or a motercycle ride to the coast. Whatever your aspirations for this time, I'm happy to help you plan it.

Fees for Animal Services  
The fee for meeting with you, writing the ceremony, traveling to your location and conducting a ceremony for your beloved pet is $175. You may hold a memorial service at any time after your friend has past, either with ashes or without. You may wish to invite friends and family and make the occassion a joyous celebration in your home, or you may chose a public location.

Fees for Funeral or Memorial Services
The fee for meeting with you and perhaps other family members and friends, writing the ceremony, traveling to your location and conducting the ceremony is $250. Your service can be held at the location of your choice and can be as lengthy or as short as you wish.  

Locations 25 miles or more from my home in South Charlotte, NC will require a small travel fee. The fee for the memorial service is not a donation and it is not tax-deductible.
