Harbor Lawn in Costa Mesa holds an ecumenical service each year. There was a pastor, a priest, a Buddhist monk and two rabbi's. Each offered a short devotional in honor of the loved ones and their families. It was lovely!

Calvary Cemetery 12-4-2009
Calvary Mortuary in Los Angeles asked me to play for this grave side service inside one of their many mausoleums. This was a lovely service and as always in these places, the acoustics were incredible. http://www.archdiocese.la/directories/cemeteries/info.php?cemetery_id=4

New Philadelphia Church in Carson was the location for this magnificent service. The family flew in from all parts of the country. Many of the decedents' family were musicians, so the service was filled with incredible music.

Grave Side Service -All Souls Cemetery 10-21-2009
This lovely service was a Hawaiian celebration. The entire group were given Hawaiian Leis to wear. I played Aloha Oe, a special request. The service was bright and colorful. Just the way the decedent would have liked it. Aloha!http://www.archdiocese.la/directories/cemeteries/info.php?cemetery_id=1
Waverly Chapel Fairhaven Mortuary 9-26-2009
This lovely Memorial Service was beautifully planned and executed with the help of a catering service that specializes in funerals.
The fall colors enhanced this event and the fabulous urn was hand-made from wood, just for this occasion. http://www.fairhavenmemorial.com/
