Who I am

 

My name is Deborah Glass and I am an Independent Funeral Celebrant living in East Farleigh with my partner Steve. Our children are all grown up and have flown the nest.

I have spent most of my life as a personal assistant whilst bringing up my family. I have also spent several years working as a part time carer and also as a voluntary befriender for the elderly which I love.

I have a Diploma in Funeral Celebrancy awarded in November of 2015 with the Fellowship of Independent Celebrants and in 2016 I carried out further studies with the National Open College Network

 

What I offer

 

I will visit you at home with your friends and family on an occasion convenient to yourselves prior to the ceremony to discuss all your requirements and needs.

The ceremony for your loved one will be arranged as you wish, making it personal and unique

I will encourage your family and friends to participate by reading poems, readings, eulogies, tributes of their choice but if this proves difficult then of course I can lead the ceremony without participation, or maybe I can help you do a little bit of both.

I will liaise between your friends and family in what can sometimes be difficult circumstances and work with executors where there may not be friends or family.

I will conduct the service to reflect the style, personality, interests and hobbies of your loved one.
