I can’t thank Orlanda and her team enough for all their help after the sudden death of my partner. Thanks to their help we were able to give him the send off he deserved and would have loved. Orlanda was always kind, compassionate and very dedicated to making the service as personal and fitting as possible, and conducted the service beautifully. Orlanda handled all the administration, like dealing with the hospital and crematorium, and checking on any insurance to cover the fees, whilst we were then free to concentrate on the details like the flowers, photos and music. Orlanda speaks excellent English and explained all the different options and gave advice when needed or asked for.
100% recommended.

Orlanda was an immediate source of comfort and reassurance during this disorienting time. She carries being empathetic, kind, organised and professional with ease. Speaking both Dutch and English fluently helped immeasurably.

We felt safe and cared for throughout this whole process and on the day of Harry’s celebration of life.

The celebration itself was beautiful and a really fitting ending to a wonderful life. Thank you kindly Orlanda and team.

Something you never want to experience, the death of your child. We were really lucky to end up with Orlanda and the RememberMe team. Orlanda took so much care of us and arranged so much for us. Nothing was too much or too crazy. She was also there for us at any time of the day if we had questions or needed a listening ear. The funeral was exactly how we had envisioned it. But also something that suits us and our son completely. Even months after the funeral we can still contact her. If there is someone who can listen well and sense what you need, it is Orlanda. And that is worth a lot during such a painful and difficult period.

Being a foreigner and losing a family member in a country not your own can be challenging. We were glad to find RememberMe funeral services. Orlanda and her team guided us through the whole process. She took care of everything from putting us at ease in the initial telephone conversation and first visit to our home to discuss details, to the service itself and after care. Her professional and courteous handling of the practical details in an emotional and difficult time for the family were very much appreciated. Orlanda is very warm and personable which made contact easy. Communication and handling of all the necessary arrangements was quick and swift. She helped pick the right location for the service and came through with all promises made, and more. In short, we can highly recommend RememberMe.
