As it's , we celebrate the wide-ranging work we're privileged to hear at the funerals of families we serve.

We've listened to national bards, number one bestsellers, and poet laureates - even limericks written the night before. In its special way, poetry cuts to the heart of saying goodbye.

Enjoy listening to the words of Helen Lowrie Marshall's 'Afterglow', as read by staff representing the different regions we serve.
