A Celebrated Story

“In the end, we’ll all become stories.” Margaret Atwood

As a former teacher, school and post-secondary administrator, it has been my greatest joy to have served and been present with people at the best and worst times of their lives. It is an honour to have been a teller, listener and witness of so many stories. As a Certified Life Celebrant, I am here to assist families with compassion, hope, and grace as together, we create a celebration that tells the unique story of each and every loved one. I look forward to sharing your stories.

Testimonials from families I have served…

You speak with eloquence. You listen with understanding. Your compassion eases the pain of loss. Your respect is a sign that you can be trusted with a broken heart.

You spoke eloquently at my dad’s graveside service. When I spoke to you about my dad you understood who he was not only as a man but also a father, husband, brother, and uncle. My heart was broken but I trusted you with it because I knew it was in healing hands. Standing at his grave you showed me compassion and it eased my pain. Would I change anything about that day? Absolutely not because you were being you and being you is what made that day less heartbreaking. You will bring families comfort in their time of grief and heartbreak. ❤️ – Sheri Jones

Sherry’s ability to see inside the person’s life and bring their story so beautifully to those remembering them is truly a gift. She was part of our family as she supported us through the loss of our mother. She captured her essence and complimented the sentiments of her children and grandchildren as she wove together a narrative that was meaningful to everyone. We felt truly cared for during this difficult time and her abilities as a celebrant brought comfort to all those that attended. It will be a loving memory of our mother forever. Thank you Dr. Martens! The Jazrawi Family
