“Losing a family member during this pandemic is agony. The whole grief process is stunted by not being able to be with our loved one in his final time, and then further stunted by not being able to gather with family and experience traditional rites of a funeral. So a Zoom time to remember and honor our loved one was a wonderful way to see each other on screen to mark the fact that we, as a family, could still gather in this time.”

“When our dear Uncle Frank passed away, we wanted a special memorial for him but we knew we needed help in getting it organized. Rev. Sue was so caring and thoughtful in her approach. She asked us questions to understand what Frank would have wanted in a service and helped us make the event very special. She created an unique service that was spiritual and very personal to our family. We are so grateful to Rev. Sue for helping us make the memorial a time to celebrate a special life.”

“When my wife’s uncle died during the coronavirus lockdown, we were at an impasse as how to mark his life. It just felt wrong to delay a formal remembrance for some indeterminate future time. Sue put together a Zoom service for the extended family which went a long way in satisfying this desire. Her creativity provided a ‘healing space’ for our entire family.
