A bereavement, and the grief that follows, is unique to each of us. Just as was the person we have now sadly lost.
​People long for "the right things to say" hoping that they can offer you some comfort, peace or solitude. As a celebrant, we wish this too.
​There are so many times when we too feel the true emotion in the room, we witness first-hand the sheer heartbreak people are experiencing and wish that a gentle hand or hug could make it somehow better for others - even if just for the briefest of moments.

Collected below are a few quotes and thoughts that I have gathered through the years. If it sits well with you, please feel free to take a few moments to read through them. I truly hope that you can find something that brings you some comfort or, maybe, starts you on your own journey to find the words and sentiments that you need just now.
​ Please take good care of yourself and those around you at this most difficult of times.
