Laura Caldwell - 05 December 2024
This review will be so easy to write as Rachel was the celebrant who turned a very sad day into a celebration of my husbands life. Everything was just as I wanted it to be from the sincerity of her words, the music perfectly synchronised and the Eulogy in harmony with the family,s words and wishes. Everyone who has lost a loved one should have someone like Rachel to help them through it. She certainly helped me and my family. Thank you Rachel for everything.

My family and I would just like to thank you so much for being our Celebrant. The service you done for my dad was incredible. Your support and patience meant so much to the family especially when you were getting stories of my dad flung at you from us all at the one time! you helped put all our stories into words and summed dad up to a T! Thanks again x

Hi Rachel
I wanted to say thank you for such a lovely service yesterday x
I’ve had so much positive feedback from family and friends. My cousins husband says it has changed his views completely on how a funeral should be because it was such a celebration.
Someone else said the poem, the music, the words were all perfect xxx
Thanks for your heartfelt delivery x

Rachel was kind and compassionate from the moment we met her. She understands her role very well and extracts the information she needs in a sensitive way.
The service on the day was lovely for my dad and this was due to Rachel's care and consideration before, during and after the service. Rachel helped make a tough day a little easier.

Hi Rachel
I just wanted to send you a massive thanks for the service you gave earlier for my mum.
It was absolutely amazing and just what my mum would have wanted.
You delivered it perfectly and had everyone smiling and laughing at the stories just like my mum would’ve wanted.
Thanks again from all of us.
We couldn’t have asked for more.
If you ever need a good review send them my way.
Regards
Willie Agnew and family

Rachel was extremely professional and compassionate at every step of preparation and delivery of the service for my brother's funeral. She managed to capture his character, with all its complications and without resorting to sugary-sweet platitudes. I had several comments from those at the funeral that it was a wonderful send-off.

Hi Rachel
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the lovely service you gave on Thursday on our behalf for Stan, he would have been so chuffed. We've had lots of lovely comments from family and friends.
I'm glad you watched the Del boy clip, you'll think of Stan now anytime you see it, lol.
Take care.
With best wishes

Rachel was the celebrant at my mums celebration of life. From the first time I met her I knew my mum would have really liked her as did I. She was kind and compassionate and spent time getting to know all about my mum and the kind of service that was needed. She kept me totally involved on all aspects and sent me drafts of what was going to be said. On the day of the funeral she was amazing filling the Crematorium with our wonderful stories and laughter in such a positive uplifting manner Many folk have contacted me to ask if myself or mum knew Rachel beforehand as it felt Rachel had totally got my mum to a tee . I personally would recommend her to anyone looking for a celebrant as she was just brilliant. Many many thanks from me and Alexa xxxx

The family had Rachel looking after us for my brothers service. For such a sensitive and upsetting time. Rachel came out and met the family and left no stone unturned in regards to getting all information relating to Greg. Very passion at her job and the family can’t thank her enough.

Rachel was the celebrant at our little twin boys funeral, we cannot express just how absolutely perfect it was. Rachel made a very dreaded day a beautiful one. Once we met Rachel we knew she would be absolutely perfect for our boys send off, she has the most kind & gentle nature.
Rachel’s service included parts of my husband & my story on how we met right up till the current day, which reminded my husband and I of just how strong we are as a couple and in this extremely tough time it was exactly what we needed to hear.
Everyone that attended our boys funeral have spoken so highly of Rachel & the personal touches she added to our service to make it everything we could have wished for and more.
We will be forever in debt to Rachel for all she done for us and our family. I said to my husband on the way home that there were 3 angels in that room today our 2 boys and Rachel an angel on earth
Thank you, Rachel, from the bottom of our hearts.

Ellis Smith - 17 April 2024
We couldn’t thank Rachel enough for the lovely service she provided for our beloved Jackie, she spent a lot of time with our family to get to know the kind of man Jackie was and how special he was to us all. Rachel managed to perfectly describe what a great husband, dad and grandpa he was just from listening to us as a family.
She was very kind to us at such a difficult time and we get a lot of comfort reading through the copy of the service provided to us.
Thanks again Rachel,
Ellis Smith and Family

Kelly Speirs - 29 March 2024
I can't thank Rachel enough for the kindness and respect shown to myself and my family at our meeting with her and then again on the day of my mum's service, Rachel went above and beyond to make it all about my mum while putting our minds at ease with her words of comfort. Her professionalism and dedication to getting the service perfect was amazing. Thank you so much Rachel from myself and my family and of coarse from my mum, I'm sure she loved it xx

Gordon Cameron - 29 March 2024
We, my wife and I, contacted Rachel following my mum, Marion passing away.
Rachel did so much in terms of preparing the eulogies, the order of service and working with the funeral directors. Between us we were trying to capture and tell the history of a lady who was 97 years old. This all had to be done in 26 mins!
Rachel achieved this and produced a service which many of my Marion's friends thought was a credit to her.
This is the second occassion I have worked with Rachel.
While both were sad she made the experience a lot more pleasant.
Thank you Rachel for the time and effort you put into Marion's service. Gordon

Hi Rachel, thanks very much for conducting my Aunt Beth Graham’s funeral on Thursday 8/2/24. You spent a considerable time in meeting the family, preparing and delivering the eulogy and the services at both the funeral parlour and the cemetery. The family felt that your delivery was just right in its length, content and sincerity and it encapsulated Beth to a T. Many attendees commented favourably on the service saying that it was a fitting service for a lovely lady. Thanks again.

Joanne McEvoy - 02 February 2024
Hi Rachel
Good morning to you. I wish to say a huge thank you once again on behalf of Christine, Stuart, myself and our family for the ultimate in personal and professional support. The absolutely beautifully written service and Eulogy, and its delivery, so softly spoken for Jim on Wednesday, we were absolutely delighted on how everything captured and reflected him perfectly.
We will never be able to express our thanks in words. But, everyone who has your support past and present I'm sure will feel the same. I will certainly always tell everyone how you have supported us. Compassion, kindness, comfort generated from you at such a difficult time for us, and although it was the saddest, most heart wrenching day for us all, you still managed to make us smile with your words, and that, we will be forever grateful for.
I wish you the best of everything in the future.
Kindest regards
Joanne
