Celebrant & officiant services, shaped around the life being honored.
Below is a range of what I offer as a memorial celebrant and funeral officiant in Los Angeles. Nothing here is a package — every service is built with you, in conversation, at your pace.
Personalized Memorial Services
No two lives are the same — your loved one's service shouldn't be either.
- Personal stories and reflections
- Family participation
- Music, readings, or meaningful elements
- Cultural or spiritual traditions, if desired
- A tone that fits — celebratory, reflective, or both
Simple or detailed — we'll shape something that feels right.
Celebrations of Life
Uplifting gatherings that honor the story, personality, and impact of your loved one.
Traditional & Non-traditional Funerals
Services shaped around your family's traditions, or reimagined entirely — with the same care either way.
Graveside & Intimate Gatherings
For families who want something smaller and more personal.
Spiritual, Faith-based, or Non-religious
Deeply spiritual, quietly reflective, or somewhere in between — the service reflects what matters most to you.
Pet Memorials
Because the loss of a beloved companion is real and deserves to be honored.
Grief & Bereavement Support
Support that begins before the service and continues long after.
- Pre-service support — help processing what just happened
- Post-service support — what comes after the crowd leaves
- Ongoing conversations for those navigating grief
- Trauma-informed care for sudden or tragic loss
You don't have to walk it alone.
Transparent, so you can focus on what matters.
Every family and every service is different. These are starting points — we will talk through what you need and adjust together.

- Family and grief support — one-on-one or family conversations, before or after the service.
If cost is a concern, please reach out. No one should feel unable to honor their loved one because of price.
Reach out, at your pace.
You don’t need to know what to say. A short note is enough. I respond as quickly as I can, day or night.
