Funerals

FB_IMG_1423041991781I have known Tania for many years, she was our Celebrant at our wedding. Hadn’t seen her for a while and when Russ got sick and in Christchurch hospital he asked me to call her. She came to see us straight away and over the next few weeks she was never far away. The last week of Russell’s life she sat with Russ and the rest of the family and friends 24/7. She was our rock ,the funeral service was amazing.

Tania you have such a loving caring soul and I would recommend you to everybody. Thanks for all you have done for me, will treasure your friendship for ever!

Much Love Helen Moore

I would like to give a testimonial for Tania regarding her “Funeral Celebrant Service” I lost my (Warren) husband to cancer, he knew he was dying and wanted to have imput into his planned funeral. He asked Tania to be his Celebrant, Tania then journeyed with both Warren, myself and our family providing support and guidance helping us plan right up until his passing and continued to provide support for me after the service which I appreciated very much. She provided information regarding Funeral Directors, explained what our options were in regards to service proceedings, caskets, even information on vessels for his ashes etc. Offered wonderful ideas to make it personal for Warren like having a beautiful basket of fresh fruit & veges on his casket to compliment his green thumb, setting up a memorial table with his carpentry tools (as he was a beautiful maker of wooden toys), and encouraged the family to also have items that were significant to them about Warren, like his fishing gear. She also gave us the idea of getting people to come sign his casket, or even the little ones to trace their handprints. He also loved his Harley Motorbike and Tania suggested we have it beside his casket, I would of never had thought of that! She supported us while the Funeral Director came and sat and talked to our grandchildren about their Grandad, they wanted to honour him but didn’t want to speak so she spoke with them and asked what they loved that was special to each of them about their Grandad, then in the opening of the service each grandchild lit a candle honouring him while Tania spoke of their memories of him, that was so very touching & special. We celebrated Warren’s Life with laughter & tears and it was a wonderful service, just how he would of wanted it, so many people have said that to me. Tania did him proud and gave him a wonderful send off and I will be forever thankful.
