Personal experience with grief and attending both beautiful and poor funerals led me to undertake training in this field. A funeral or memorial service is one of life’s most important rituals. I’ll work closely with you and family members to craft a meaningful and memorable farewell ceremony for your loved one – a ceremony that is tailored to the values and beliefs of the deceased and honours their life.
I can help organise and conduct a ceremony that connects the lives of those present with the one who has gone. With a strong background in public speaking and event organising I can advise and guide you through arrangements all those small details that make a ceremony run smoothly.
If you need, I can write the eulogy and deliver on behalf of you and the family. If you want to deliver the eulogy or speak yourself but have reservations, I can give some gentle coaching. I can even assist with ideas for music, readings and other important touches to make it a memorable occasion.
Based close to Ballarat, Victoria, I can travel a reasonable distance. Further distance by arrangement
From the moment Rhonda visited us in our home, I knew she was perfect to give the eulogy for my deceased partner and son’s father.
She talked to my son and me in a way that we related tales without effort and that ensured they were genuine and heartfelt. She encouraged us to discuss anything no matter how trivial we thought it may be and the end result was a perfect depiction. At the memorial service she paced the eulogy to include acknowledging family and friends and it was clear from all at the event that she had real insight into the man she was talking about.
I continue to get people complimenting the eulogy and asking who the wonderful woman who performed it was.
Thank you Rhonda.
