Australian Attorney General Lionel Murphy approved and encouraged Funeral Celebrants
In 1973 a great Australian legislator, Senator Lionel Murphy, established Marriage Celebrants. Persons were appointed to give their clients the ceremony the client wanted - and never to impose on anyone any element of a ceremony the client did not ask for or approve. Funeral Celebrants, with Lionel Mujrphy's full approval and encouragement, evolved as a natural consequence of this program not only throughout Australia but also in the UK, New Zealand and recently in the USA.
It became very clear to the first Funeral Celebrants what those who had lost a loved one wanted. This was, and still is, a carefully composed personal ceremony - words and music which pay proper and adequate tribute to the person who has died. They discovered that to do justice to this task, many hours must be spent in preparation.
Choose Your Funeral Celebrant Wisely
The funeral celebrants associated with the International College of Celebrancy have usually been drawn to this work by a strong realization that this is a task which needs to be done - and done well. Many have experienced grief themselves and have felt that the funerals they had attended were not always satisfactory or helpful.
All are convinced that at the end of a person's life the tribute we pay deserves to be the best that human skill can present. Nothing can take away the shock of death, but a genuine, well prepared tribute eases the pain. The recollection of a truly personal ceremony is a constant consolation.
