I would just like to acknowledge the sympathy and compassion that Christopher Field showed to myself and my family at the sad loss of my mother.
Christopher was very thoughtful and guided us all throughout this difficult time.
Christopher's help, kindness and attention to detail was evident with a lovely funeral service he conducted.

From our initial contact, Chris was incredibly supportive and understanding. His guidance in planning the ceremony was invaluable, as he helped us explore our options and offered suggestions tailored to our family. He was exceptionally sensitive to our needs during this difficult time, skillfully navigating potential family tensions with respect and tact.
Chris allowed us to create a ceremony that truly reflected our family's wishes. We wholeheartedly recommend him.

We wanted to express our gratitude for all your help both prior, during and since the service. Thank you for guiding us through Nana's last hoorah. For us it was a wonderful closure and you made the process and the day itself easier to handle. The service you created was lovely and captured nan in all her beloved glory. And the pictures you sent look great and can be added to the happy memories. And we wish you all the best with your charity drive!

I worked with Christopher together with my family to help us structure and conduct the funeral service for my late mother at the end of 2023. It was a difficult, emotional and challenging time and he provided valuable support to both me and my family to help structure the funeral service in terms of selecting the hymns, readings, prayers, music and with the eulogy. His guidance and wise counsel helped me and the family to navigate the order of service and his high standard of care and empathy in conducting the service was appreciated, even extending to offering to read the eulogy if I was unable to continue to do so for emotional reasons.
I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone who needs guidance, advice, support and empathy to help design and conduct a personalised service.

I recently used the services of Chris, as my partner of over 40 years passed away this year.
I found Chris to be caring, compassionate and very easy to talk to. He conducted the service with empathy and understanding, despite never having met my partner, his speech at David's funeral seemed to me like he knew him.
I was recommended to him and I would highly recommend Chris in turn.
He is very approachable, and has good listening skills. He conducts his work with a timely and organised approach.

We asked Christopher to conduct my Fathers Funeral back in October 2020 at Eastbourne Crematorium, we had met with Christopher a week earlier and gave him our thoughts on how we would like the ceremony conducted and he guided us on all the things we needed help with, he didn’t let us down.
On the day we arrived and he took control and organised everyone to enter the Chapel and then took us through the ceremony, Christopher has a calming voice and acted in a very professional manner while showing empathy and a natural warmth. I would not hesitate in recommending Christopher for any event as I’m sure he would act in the same professional manner as he did with us

Christopher met with my brother and I after my mother’s death to help us design a service which met our non-religious needs. He provided help, advice and suggestions on how the service might run but most importantly, he listened carefully to our wishes, thoughts and concerns to ensure what we decided on was right for our Mum. Whilst I decided to write the eulogy myself, as much a piece of personal therapy as it was a celebration of her life, Christopher delivered it, and beautifully too, with

Having just lost someone and trying to plan a funeral is a super difficult time for anyone, especially when your thoughts are all over the place and you don’t really know where to start. We asked the funeral director for some help finding someone who would respect our wish to have a non religious ceremony and be able to help us retell stories at my dad’s funeral. From the moment Chris walked through the door to meet us, we all felt such relief, he put us at ease straightaway and was genuinely
just a nice guy. We had complete confidence that he would not only do the ceremony as we asked, even with some of the colourful stories, but also in a really kind and professional way. Thank you Chris for your support over such a difficult time for us.
