Angela Wallis

Hello; I am an FPC trained Funeral Celebrant, working with non-religious, semi-religious, mixed-faith, spiritual and holistic ceremonies. I strive to deliver a very personal, tailor-made service to honour the life and memories of deceased loved ones, on behalf of the families and friends left behind.

I have been a professional actor and storyteller for nearly 30 years and during that time, I have seen and understood how the memories of people can be kept alive and passed down, by the collating and sharing of their stories. It is a great privilege to be able to be involved in this work of keeping memories alive.

Whatever the circumstances of death, a funeral service is an opportunity to celebrate the life of the deceased, as well as an incredibly important time for those experiencing shock and grief to come together and support each other.

I have many years experience of public speaking, poetry reading, delivery of scripts and other writing. I have also written poetry and plays myself, so the writing of a eulogy and the representation and sharing of the stories from a person’s life, working closely and openly with the families to give the truest and most vivid recollection of their experiences and true character, is something that comes very naturally to me and which I feel I can add creativity, depth and compassion to.

It would be a great honour for me to assist in giving your loved one the best and most heart-felt service possible.
