What is Life Celebration?

Chris Timmins believes a funeral service should be as individual as the person whose life it commemorates. Families and friends are encouraged to participate in planning a service to reflect the life of the deceased and no request should be considered as "too unusual".

Chris Timmins services may be held in your local church or in other venues such as Chapels or funeral homes or at the gravesite. There are other venues which a family may choose, such as parks or beaches. However, permission must be obtained to conduct a service in a public place.
