Padraic Cawley, Civil Funeral Celebrant

There is no set format for a civil funeral. Each ceremony is unique – as unique as the person who has died; as unique as the life they lived. It is a ceremony created especially for them.

The Civil Funeral Ceremony:

Reflects the beliefs, wishes, values, and cultural traditions of the person who has died. Fulfills the needs of the people closest to that person. Meets the expectations of all who come to the funeral. Is a highly personal ceremony.
