We recently held a lovely outdoor celebration of life for our daughter at El Camino Memorial Park in Sorrento Valley. Celeste was exceptional as celebrant, serving as both officiant and soloist for the event. She guided us through the planning process with compassion and took great care to understand who our daughter was through conversations with and written comments of family members. Together we chose several songs for Celeste to sing as guests arrived and others she would sing during the celebration of life.
An ordained minister, she facilitated the service with thoughtful and consoling words and spiritual reflections appropriate to our situation. Our choice was to have several family members speak, with three songs interspersed through the program. Celeste eased these transitions seamlessly and her singing is simply luminous. My husband and I are grateful for the extraordinary care, sympathy, and peace that Celese provided to honor our daughter's life in such a beautiful way. read more
