The Funeral Angel
– from Imogen
We approached Robyn to act as a celebrant for my mother’s memorial service and she was such an angel. I knew right away she was the sort of person my mother would have loved. We adored her and she was so unbelievably helpful. The service was perfect, she helped plan something entirely customised to our mum’s personality and beliefs, and we are so happy that we found her. ‘Funeral Angel’ is such an accurate way to describe her.

“Saint Robyn of West Ryde! We can’t thank you enough for the perfect ceremony. Everyone there was singing your praises and Dom would have loved your outfit!”
– from Brendan and Laura
“Once again, we thank you so very much for everything yesterday. We know Dom would have loved it! It was lovely to see such a big turnout, as you know we were worried not many would show. The family were all very pleased with how the service went, and are so grateful for you.”
– from Andy & Lisa
“Dear Robyn, thank YOU! You are a wonderful person. You were absolutely the right person for Dom’s ceremony, and understood her so well. Thanks so much for bringing everything together, and for making it an easier process for us. None of us will ever forget what a special and beautiful service it was.
Many thanks, and love”

“Robyn. You were awesome. Thank you for putting together such a beautiful reading for Mum. You absolutely did her justice under time constraints that boggle my mind – even with other functions you had to juggle. Just incredible.”
– from Tiana
“Thank you for delivering such a great eulogy for my Mum. She would have loved it. You did a fantastic job, so many people said so.”

I wanted to thank you personally for the wonderful service you gave for Brigitte. It went very smoothly and exactly the right atmosphere to farewell my beloved. Thank you again for your guidance and the wonderful words. I’m so glad we chose you.”

“When my husband died it was sudden and totally unexpected. I found myself going from planning his 30th birthday celebration to his funeral. All I knew was that the day had to reflect him, as the wonderful young man that he was. To do this I knew I needed a celebrant who really cared. Robyn had married my best friend the year before and her ability to tell the story of their relationship made her my only choice. I wanted someone to tell my husband’s story.
I knew Robyn didn’t do funerals at this point but she agreed to help us. Thinking back now on how busy she was and how much time she spent getting to know about us all, her commitment was extraordinary. Robyn became part of our family, shared our loss and comforted us at our time of need. I knew I could trust her to honour my husband properly. Robyn ran the funeral both professionally and with heart. She read my eulogy for me and removed so much of the stress from an already painful day. We all simply knew that she would take care of the day. I had so many people comment on how well she ran the service and how it was perfect for my husband. I totally agree with them. Robyn with her commitment, professionalism and heart made one of the hardest times of my life just that much easier and I will forever be grateful to her for it.”

Robyn, thank you so much for today. It all went so well and I think Steve would have been very pleased with how it all turned out. Very fitting for the person he was. Interspersed with smiles and laughter throughout the day. You made the day so very special and we knew that we were in good hands with you at such a sad time for us. You made it all that much easier.

Robyn, thank you for everything you did for us in farewelling our amazing father, husband, brother and son! It was a very sad time for all of the family and your thought and care made a very difficult day so much easier!
From all of us……Thank you!
From Ilona
Robyn, you made all the difference at my Grandmother’s funeral service.
From being available at the eleventh hour, to late evening chats, to catering for our specific and custom requirements… Robyn, you just understood what we were after.. and you went above and beyond to deliver.
You spoke with heart and passion. You genuinely cared about the ceremony and did everything in your power to ensure it ran as seamlessly as possible.
My uncle, mum and dad both specifically commented on how wonderful you were in putting together such a personalised and meaningful presentation.
Nagyi would have loved it! I couldn’t recommend you enough.. Forever grateful and so happy we connected.
Thank you Robyn – from the entire family
Robyn, it is you that we need to thank the most. You conducted my late husband’s funeral seamlessly. It is a great relief to us and the best possible goodbye we could wish to present to him. We thank you so much.
We could not recommend you as a funeral celebrant highly enough. New to the funeral planning nightmare as I was, you were a calm, patient and reassuring voice throughout. You went to enormous trouble to make sure you understood who it was we were farewelling. You spoke with warmth, love and genuine empathy. You went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of the funeral service went without a hitch – no small feat in Covid times.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Robyn for all that you did for us, in such a dark moment.
