Lou Szymkow - A Life Celebrant

This section is about Funerals & Memorials. There is a separate listing for weddings.
I create and conduct beautiful ceremonies (funerals and/or memorials) in reflection of the life that in a very personal service created & delivered with care and sensitivity, or even humour if desired, to honour the deceased and to help and support loved ones.
I am also a Marriage Celebrant and Naming Celebrant conducting ceremonies for all the greatest moments of love in life.
A funeral/memorial should be as individual as the person it commemorates.
But it is more than that. It is a reflection of love and memory, of relationships and connections.
Every funeral should an enriching; a fitting tribute and an enduring legacy.
A ceremony is integral to the grieving process and to life itself.

Why I'm a celebrant: Everyone deserves an honourable and enriching service.

We have all lived a life as best we could and so Churched or unchurched, religious or athiest, spiritual or agnostic, We come into this world as innocents and to innocence we return leaving only a footprint on this world for those we love, or love us.
None of us is perfect but the good in us all should be honoured and celebrated.

Treasured memories: I love what I do and find wonder in every single meeting and Ceremony.

Every person has a story and I am very priviliged to be able to gather, acknowledge and interpret that story in the retelling with sincerity, honesty, compassion, forgiveness, honour and commemoration.
