SERVICES
NEW SERVICES: Caroline is a newly ordained MInister through the Metaphysical Church and can perform a personalized wedding service.
As the funeral celebrant each service is personalized after time is spent with the family learning their story and researching the family history and person who the service is for. Excerpts, poems and music is selected and written with their unique story in mind. I have a good working relationship with many local Funeral Homes including Jardine Funeral Home , Mackey Funeral Home, Lakeland Funeral Home,
Stoddart Funeral Home Hendren Funeral Home. Along with
others in Newmarket, Oshawa and the Durham region.
As an end of life doula I have over 30 years of experience. I offer holistic, non-judgemental, non-medical support for those who are dying as well as their loved ones. I provide support for people going through the MAID program ( Medically Assistance in Dying). I am always learning. No death is the same. If I do not know the answer I have access to the resources I need to find the answers you seek.
