Media Questions:

Funeral service is changing to meet the needs of every family to remember a life in a meaningful, personal way.

With millions of Baby Boomers describing themselves as "spiritual" but not religious, more families are asking for Celebrants to conduct funeral, memorial and graveside services .

What happens when someone doesn't belong to a church, suffers a loss, and goes to a funeral home to plan a service for a loved one? Often, they are offered an officiant who only inserts the name of the deceased into a cookie-cutter, generic service. Imagine enduring the same service that was used for dozens of other funerals.

Now, there are alternatives to truly celebrate the life someone lived. Spiritual and non-religious families are being offered Celebrants to research a life story, create a tribute, and conduct an original service that lifts up a life. There are more than 1,200 Celebrants in the United States and Canada helping families plan personal, uplifting funeral services.

Celebrant Pam Meily Vetter conducts funeral, memorial and graveside services in Los Angeles and Orange counties in California. She is also available for consulting by phone or writing services for long-distance farewells.
