About Me

Hello and welcome to my website. I'm Peter Bethge and was born in Brentwood, Essex in the U.K. I was Christened in the Church of England but, later on in life, turned to the Humanist Association - but found that it wasn't for me. I wanted something, somewhere in between (perhaps I'm still looking!)I am now a member of the Association of Indepenent Celebrants (AOIC) which is a very worthwhile organisation.

I have worked in the funeral business, covering all aspects, including arranging and conducting funerals. Having lost well loved family members myself, I know the sort of emotions people are experiencing at this sad time, and so I feel I can help them in a very understanding and caring way.

I started Personal Funeral Ceremonies to help people who wanted more than a totally non religious or a totally religious service. The ceremony can be tailor made to suit you or your loved one's wishes.

Since 1997 I have conducted many, many, ceremonies and have become well known by many Funeral Directors in Essex and East London plus the surrounding areas - the following companies are just a few of them - Adam Greenwood Funeral Home in Chelmsford - Paul J.King of Chelmsford, Braintree, South Woodham Ferrers and Burnham on Crouch - Chelmsford Star Co-operative Funeral Service - B.F.Mulley of Upminster & Hornchurch - Eric Todd Funeral Service (Joe Wylde) - Bennetts of Brentwood & Billericay - T. Cribb & Sons of East London - Many of the Essex based Co-op Funeralcare shops - Carters of Wickford - Janet Davies of Braintree(Lady Funeral Director) - Frank Rivett of Upminster and surrounding areas - West & Coe of Dagenham and many of their branches - The Co-op at Burnham on Crouch, Maldon, Witham & Colchester - T.
