Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. - Dr. Seuss Dr. Seuss talks a lot about love and loss in his writing. One of his children’s books that explores emotions from loss and struggles is My Many Colored Days. Another famous quote of his is this, Life’s too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forgive the ones who don’t and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your lif...e, let it. Nobody said it’d be easy, they just promised it would be worth it. If you are interested in getting complimentary, inspirational grief poems, click here: http://204159.celebrate-life.us/grief-poems/

Funerals are a celebration of life. Yes, they’ll be hard, but they’re as necessary as weddings. Go anyway!

Working in the funeral profession day after day, we sometimes we forget that there is vocabulary that others outside the profession might not fully understand. Celebrant is one of those words In the funeral profession, a celebrant is a non-clergy professional that conducts formal memorials or celebration of life services. They are dedicated to conduct meaningful services that honor and remember a life lived. They can do so without linking to religious affiliation or belie...fs, or include the deceased beliefs as requested. The message of their service includes unique sharing of how the deceased lived their life, their personality and values, and even memories from family and friends. Not only do they perform the funeral service, they actually plan and oversee all funeral proceedings. A funeral celebrant is there to help you decide on any and all details as you are arranging the funeral. A funeral celebrant and a funeral director have many of the same roles. Many funeral celebrants are actually also licensed funeral directors and vice versa.
