It is with profound sadness that we let you know that Peter Murphy, CELEBRANT, ACTOR, MUSICIAN, SINGER, HUSBAND, FATHER and FRIEND, died suddenly on 26th January this year and his funeral brought Lewes to a standstill on Friday 11th February.

He has been a fellow collaborator at ARKA for many years and supported many, many families with meaningful, beautiful ceremonies – of course, funeral ceremonies, but also weddings, baby namings and life transitions, not only in Brighton but country-wide. Peter was a generous, sensitive, beautiful, gentle man, such a creative force, and he will be missed hugely as we gather ourselves and move forward. We wanted to inform as many people as possible as he has touched so many lives in our community.
