Humanist Funerals in Llay | John Knowles Funerals

Humanist Funerals in Llay Humanist funerals in Llay are also known as secular or non-religious funerals. Such a funeral is a ceremony that does not incorporate religious or spiritual elements. Humanism is a philosophical worldview that emphasises human values, reason, and ethics. As such, humanist funerals reflect these principles by focusing on the individual and their impact on the lives of others. A humanist funeral aims to honour the deceased person in a way that is meaningful to their life and beliefs. The ceremony typically centres around personal stories, memories, and reflections shared by family members, friends, and loved ones. These tributes highlight the unique qualities, achievements, and contributions of the person who has passed away. They celebrate their individuality and the impact they had on those around them.

At funeral homes in Llay, humanist funerals involve the services of a celebrant who is skilled in conducting non-religious ceremonies. Thus, the celebrant works closely with the family to create a personal and inclusive ceremony. Hence, this ceremony will reflect the wishes and values of the deceased and their loved ones. The ceremony may include readings of poems, literature, or meaningful passages that reflect humanist ideals. These ideals can include compassion, love, and the pursuit of knowledge. Music, both recorded and live, is often incorporated to evoke emotions and create a reflective atmosphere. The ceremony provides a space for grieving, healing, and paying tribute to the person’s life.

Humanist funerals in Llay can take place in a variety of settings. These settings can include crematoriums, funeral homes, or even outdoor locations that held significance for the person who passed away. Hence, we can tailor the location and format of the ceremony to reflect the individual’s personality and interests. In this way, they can provide a more personal and intimate experience for those in attendance. One of the key principles of humanist funerals is inclusivity. Hence, these ceremonies are open to people of all beliefs. Humanist funerals can create a space where people from various backgrounds come together to celebrate the life of the deceased. Thus, this inclusive approach ensures that the ceremony is respectful and meaningful to all attendees. Contact John Knowles Funerals for humanist funerals. We aim to provide funeral services that meet your specific needs.

John Knowles and staff supported my family in the most professional and empathetic way during our recent bereavement. Jan at the Rossett office went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Guidance and suggestions were given to help us choose what was right for us. Then the staff at John Knowles handled everything seamlessly and with the utmost care, respect and professionalism. Nothing was too much trouble and any changes we wanted to make were happily welcomed by Jan. Jan recommended a Celebrant called Margaret Harrison to take our service - she was also excellent. I cannot thank Mr Knowles and his team enough for the level of service we received. Mr Knowles personally ensured my Mother-in-Law was supported on this difficult day. It was also nice to have two ladies from the company as bearers. I would highly recommend John Knowles and his staff.

My Dad passed away in 2017 and his ashes were sprinkled without me knowing. I needed closure and for me this was something that proved he was here and missed. The memorial gardens I tried had no capacity. I’d been out Roy Orbison was on the radio. One of my Dad’s favourite singers and we had seen the musical the weekend I got engaged. I drive by the Broughton branch and on this day I plucked up the courage to go in. I couldn’t have been treated with more care or respect by Sarah and John. I was even apologised to when John had to take a mobile call. They put me in touch with Flintshire memorials and I now have a tree in the memorial garden there. It was ready for 19/8/21 the 4th anniversary of losing my Dad. I now have closure, I’ll always miss my Dad but I have a beautiful & tranquil place to remember him. Considering John Knowles Funerals hadn’t arranged my Dad’s cremation, I was treated with so much care. This company is a gem up here and really wants to be part of the community they are in. It’s rare to find a company that acts like they do with no money changing hands. I just wish they had carried out my Dad’s arrangements. If you are looking for a funeral company that treats you like family John Knowles is the company to choose at what is a very difficult time.

We can’t thank you all enough. I’m lucky enough to know Sarah as a very caring compassionate friend so I felt so much better knowing my mum was in her safe keeping. Margaret was amazing and such a lovely lady and John made me laugh on the day which helped so much as I was far from ok. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts x
