Hi Julie, Just wanted to say that you did a great job today to bring mums life alive once again even though only briefly.
I have not experienced a service like this before and I can see why Penny recommended you.
It was beautifully done. Much more a celebration and more personal.

Hi Julie, I attended a funeral conducted by yourself today and wanted to express my thanks for your thoughtful, kind and generous celebration today. You were so natural and able to put people at their ease in such an emotional situation. With the children you let them still be very much part of their contributions and we heard the words as coming
from them. A skill that comes from having real empathy. Thank you so much, With best wishes

Dear Julie, I just wanted to say a big thank you for the service and also the compassionate and pragmatic guidance and support you have provided us through this challenging time. You gave Mum such a splendid send off by capturing her essence and delivering a heartfelt and joyous service....she would definitely have approved! You were a star.
Her send off all through the day could not have been better. I will always hold that in mind as it represented
what she stood for. Thank you so much again Julie, Abi - Jersey

Dear Julie, I want to thank you for the lovely service you conducted for my aunt Joyce's funeral. Your friendly manner made it seem as if you actually knew her, adding the humour that she would have appreciated and that was definitely appreciated by her family and friends. The service had the perfect balance of religious and secular elements and, although it sounds strange, we enjoyed celebrating Joyce's life in a way she chose and would have approved of.
Kind regards, Marie - Epsom

Hello Julie, Thank you very much for the service you did for my parents, I have received such amazing feedback from family and friends attending most saying that they have never been to such a nice service. You listened and carried out my requests completely and it was better than I could ever have wished for, such a wonderful send off for my parents.
We raised £185 at the service for the Friends of Worthing Hospital which I have made up to £300.
Thank you again Julie. Kind Regards. Steve -Worthing

After a long painful battle my Dad passed away. I contacted JLM Connects (having never arranged a funeral
before, I was totally green)! I have to say your head is a bit all over the place at this time. Julie could not have been
more helpful and led myself, along with my Brother and Sister through the stages of what needed to be done.
Julie conducted our Dads service, and how beautiful it was. She has little caring touches that we had not seen before.
Our Mum is a very particular person and wanted everything to be just lovely for Dad. They had been together for 77
years and inseparable. Mum could not stop talking about the service. She was full of praise for Julie for conducting
such a beautiful flowing service. Julie also lead our chosen hymns. She stepped back from the mic and we heard a beautiful background soprano voice, which everyone appreciated. She has an efficient, caring, lovely way about her, and the service was beautifully written and spoken. Afterwards we discovered that her business partner Matt, could assist
Mum in the setting up Lasting Power of Attorneys. We hadn't realised just how important these are to have in place
for our Mum, and that they could be set up at a reasonable cost, due to Matt's assistance. We cannot praise
JLM Connects enough, and we asked them to put our thanks on their website.
Thank you so much, Gillian, Mum, Stephen, Jean and family.

Hi Julie, Just wanted to say a huge thank you for making Spikes service so special and thank you for getting me started on my script. You gave me the confidence not only to finish it, but also the confidence to stand up and read it. It was such a lovely service from start to end. We had so many comments from guest saying how good you were and how you kept the service flowing nicely. We are so glad you were chosen as our celebrant and will highly recommend you to others.
Once again, thank you.

The service that you developed and presented for us was absolutely fabulous and the tone and depth touched all of those present in such a wonderful and very personal way. I think that I can say that we all took away a very special something that each will treasure and remember my Mum in a way that links the parting as something, yes, tinged with sadness, but also a joy of life so typical Mum's style of zest for seeing the positive in everything. Thank you so much.
Kind regards

Hi Julie I would just like to thank you so much for the way you conducted the service for Phil - it was very uplifting. I have had a few letters saying what a wonderful celebration of phil's life and bearing in mind that you had never met him and spent a couple of hours with me it felt as though you had known us both. So thank you from all the family and myself - it certainly helped the day pass a little easier. Kind regards.

Funeral 2017
Hi Julie, Mum and all of us would like to say thank you so much for making a painful day so lovely.
Everyone commented how well you presented the service and a cousin of mine said he wished his dad's had been as touching. Folk kept going up to mum to say how good it was and that it was so related to Dad. I felt there was more laughter during the day than tears, which is what we all needed.
I was particularly impressed that you knew the words to 'Blue is the colour' and getting all the grandchildren involved.
We raised a glass to Dad when Chelsea won the league recently and mum even wore his Chelsea shirt in his honour.
Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Hi Julie, we just wanted to say a big thank you to you for Mum's beautiful service. You put in a huge amount of work putting it all together exactly as we wanted it and we know Mum would have approved! You enabled us to give Mum
a send-off she would have been proud of, and that was of comfort to all her family and friends. If any funeral could be described as “wonderful”, that’s how we'll remember this one!
We were quite overwhelmed on the day with the number of people that attended and so many of them said what a wonderful service it had been. Thank you for all the hard work that you put in. It really meant so much to us all.
