Of life and infinity.
Celebration of Life (the)
A heartfelt farewell that honors the life of a loved one
I prefer the term "Celebration of Life" because it focuses on celebrating the life of the departed and cherishing the memories of that life. Honoring an entire lifetime in a single moment may feel overwhelming – but that is precisely what the departed deserves: a moment to pay tribute to their life's work.
In my work, I like to play with the elements of finiteness and infinity: finiteness represents the physical impermanence, while infinity reflects what the departed leaves behind – all that is invisible yet endures. It’s about how they inspired us, what they moved within us, and the mark they left behind.
A Celebration of Life provides the opportunity to share stories that bring both laughter and tears, creating a space where grief and joy can coexist.
In the end, a Celebration of Life offers more than comfort; it honors the unforgettable legacy left by the departed. Together, we create a space where memories remain alive and the energy of the loved one continues to resonate.
From loss to dignity: our common path.
#1 Our First Meeting.
It all starts with listening. In an initial conversation – whether in person or via video chat – you share memories of your loved one and your wishes for the funeral ceremony.
If it feels right for you and you feel comfortable, we’ll arrange a more in-depth follow-up meeting. This is how our shared journey begins to create a dignified farewell.
#2 I Listen to You
To craft a personal and heartfelt speech, I use our second meeting to learn as much as possible about your loved one – and about you. The funeral speech should reflect the person in all their facets, capturing both the big and small stories you share. In the end, it creates an image that stays with those present, in their hearts and minds. From this, I shape a speech that makes this farewell unforgettable.
#3 Finding the Right Words
After we’ve discussed everything, I begin writing the speech. With great sensitivity and care, I shape your stories and memories into words that provide comfort and reflect your loved one in all their uniqueness. The speech is meant to touch the guests and give them the feeling of a dignified and deeply personal farewell.
Let us transform the finite into the infinite.
Every funeral can become a celebration of life. Let us find the right words together to turn the farewell into an unforgettable moment of remembrance.
