“A huge thank you to Barry for the beautiful service he provided at my mother’s celebration of life early last month. He came to our house, listened to stories about my mother, and got a great sense of the person she was. We were not the easiest family to deal with as we wanted ‘A celebration of life that was nothing like a funeral.’ I thought we might give poor Barry an aneurysm with all of our ‘No’s!’. But somehow he managed to write and execute a beautiful service for my mom, one I know she would have loved. Thank you, Barry for your professionalism, your patience, and your kindness throughout the entire experience. I highly recommend you to anyone looking for a celebrant.”
