Funerals and Memorial Services
Reverend Lydia Trettis, an Interfaith Minister, creates distinctive ceremonies for
individuals that focus on celebrating life with honour and respect. Together with
the family, she helps in the creation of a ceremony that is personal and
appropriate for the needs of the deceased and the community of mourners.
The Interfaith Funeral and Memorial service has several purposes: First of all to
celebrate the life and passing of the deceased. The service also helps to
acknowledge the release the soul of the deceased on to the next part of their
journey. It gives the mourners to remember and honour the deceased in a service
with others. An Interfaith service aims to help the mourners heal and find comfort
from the words and feelings shared. We will recognize and honour the mystery of
life passage. The service can include favorite songs or hymns, prayers, poems or
readings, quite time and even sharing of memories from the congregation. The
service will be designed to honour the deceased, their family and their friends.
