Personal
Philosophy
I believe the majority of a service should be a celebration of your loved one's life, what he/she accomplished, and the influence he/she had on others. Too often, a minister will read the obituary, then you never hear the name again and a sermon is preached instead.
I like to start with asking as many friends and family members a series of questions about the life and legacy of your loved one. Meeting in person (when possible) and getting to know the close family and friends allows me to be a bit more connected and gather as much personal feedback as possible. This communication shapes the eulogy. I never get tired of hearing funeral directors tell me, "We have never heard so much laughter coming from our chapel than when you do services here!"
​
The eulogy composed from feedback from close family and friends often bring smiles, laughter, and tears. Laughter through tears can be a very healing emotion.
Do you need someone to lead the celebration of your loved one's life? Have questions?

The beginning photos of getting out of the cars and entering the covered shelter showed most people with very sad and serious looks on their faces. The flag ceremony was also solemn and sad. However, as your minister began to speak, the faces began to change. Change toward hope, uplifted, smiling, even sometimes laughing. As he spoke... it was as if a heavy weight was lifted from the group.... It was very moving to witness.

Jason is our first choice for families that want to celebrate a life well. He learns all about the loved one, makes sure the service honors the loved one and ensures the family is on a good path to healing. Many times those listening think he must have known the deceased well or was a family member.
