Writing an obituary or a eulogy can be one of the hardest things we ever have to do. We want to get it right, convey our emotions, and express the legacy of our beloved departed.

We'll meet on the phone or on Zoom, and you can tell me everything you wish to about your person - their personality quirks, fond memories, and lifetime achievements. I also understand that funeral expenses are trying to your bank account, so pricing is negotiable depending on word count, I'm sure we can agree on something that fits your budget.
