The Consummate Professional1
In the spring of 2018, I attended a local networking event and while I was there, I crossed paths with Alex, an entrepreneur.
What began as small talk quickly evolved into a more profound conversation. Alex shared his passion for revolutionising the way we celebrate lives. His refreshing ideas focused on celebrating life, and for the first time in years, I felt a shift in my perspective.
Alex’s enthusiasm reminded me of the importance of innovation and authenticity. Our brief meeting marked a pivotal moment for me. For the next two years, he mentored my annual self-evaluations. At the end of my 2022 review, he wrote this:
Steve Game-Game-Blackmoor, the driving force behind Last Rites, continually earns heartfelt praise from families for his exceptional bereavement services. He seamlessly blends professionalism with compassion, demonstrating a remarkable ability to connect with those he serves.

Families frequently commend Steve for his artistic talent in crafting unique farewells. He skilfully weaves personal stories and memories into each tribute, creating deep resonance. Known as a “breath of fresh air,” Steve’s modern approach to end-of-life services shifts the focus from sombre traditions to celebrating life, enabling families to honour their loved ones in meaningful ways.
His empathy and outstanding communication skills help transform the often-overwhelming funeral planning process into a manageable experience for families. Steve takes the time to connect personally with each family, ensuring that his dedication to providing personalised support shines through in every thoughtful detail. He creates beautifully crafted photo and video tributes that pay tribute to the deceased. His commitment to excellence has garnered him multiple awards, including the prestigious Funeral Celebrant of the Year and a Fellowship with the Society of Bereavement Practitioners.
For more information about Steve’s inspiring services, visit the Last Rites website. You’ll find in-depth insights, testimonials from grateful families, and details about his partnerships with trusted funeral directors and bereavement services.
I was genuinely impressed by the extent of his engagement and the review statement he published back in March of that year. I’ve always held strong beliefs about the importance of ongoing professional growth. My passion for my work drives me, and I view my annual evaluation as an essential tool to fuel that enthusiasm for the service I provide.
Ultimately, my most significant supporters are the families I serve, they become my strongest advocates. Their reassurance that I’m making a real difference provides all the validation I need.
