On behalf of myself and family we would like to thank Jane for being our celebrant. Jane delivered a beautiful service for my sister, she told my sisters life story as it truly was, she paid attention to detail, gave us a wee smile at our dark time, She showed empathy , made herself known to us on our arrival to the crematorium.

Jane’s story telling was loud and clear, at the same time , gentle and soothing to listen to. .

My sister would have been as proud as the family were

A sincere thanks to you Jane from Gina and the family. ❤️❤️🌹🌹
