Fact - Talking about Dying is a Taboo subject.
Yet in other countries talking and preparing for what we all know is going to happen is the normal thing to do. It is as simple as writing a Will to make sure loved ones know what your wishes are when you die.
At Living Funeral Services we break down these taboos and give you the information so loved ones understand and are prepared.
Talks are available to groups.
We are happy to come to your group, business or residential home with an informative talk which bursts the bubble on this taboo subject. We explain what happens when families lose a loved one, what is involved in the process of planning a funeral and most importantly how to make things easier at a time when life is very hard.
So why do we need to talk?
When a loved one dies, families are left to arrange the funeral.
In a very distressed and confused state, families have to plan the funeral service. Most of the time they have very little understanding of how to plan the service and no instructions left from their loved one as to what they want for their funeral service.They will choose a funeral director with no idea as to what services are on offer or what the final cost of the funeral will be. Most importantly they do not understand dying and the law.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if families already had this information, understood what was involved in planning a funeral and what they had to do ahead of time. Most importantly had instructions on what their loved ones wishes were for their funeral service. For example the music they want, poems, tributes, prayers etc or even better if their loved one had planned and approved their funeral service, had it written up and stored so loved ones had nothing to do or worry about.

A BIG problem - Loss of information
One of the biggest problems ALL celebrants have, is once a loved one has died, most families do not know what life was like for them as a child or a teenager. Who their friends were and all the wonderful memories and stories of life growing up together and tales of life before they met their wife/husband.
These are lost forever, which means a large section of their life missing from their funeral service. We cover the benefits of getting your life story out of your head and onto paper, so we can include this in your funeral service.
