Funerals
I have been piping for funerals,
wakes, burial services, and memorial services for fifteen years. The funeral ceremonies range through many religious denominations and various locations, whether in a house of worship, graveside, or other venue. I also play at homes for the elderly and Hospice homes. Every service is new and unique, and I view each one as distinctive to the family and friends of the deceased.
The price for a funeral ceremony ranges between $250 - $300. Long distance travel and extra playing time may be an additional cost. We can discuss your needs and make adjustments as necessary.
Highland pipes can be appropriate at any type of funeral, whether it is a cremation or burial. Being a proud and regal sounding instrument they add a wonderful feeling of strength and signifcance to a funeral ceremony. The sound of the bagpipe is the perfect send-off for your loved ones.
Please feel free to ask me any questions in regard to pipe music for your event.

Dear Peter,
As John’s (illness) progressed… he gave me some guidelines for his final days. One of his wishes was that you play the bagpipes at his funeral. How proud he would have been. You did a splendid job! It was even better than we anticipated. The choice of music and your accompaniment to the Honor Guard made a striking impression.
Bless you,
Lynda & family
