I am available during the week starting at 5:00 pm and anytime on the weekends. The base service contract will be for 1-hour a week, with ability to increase as warranted by the service needs.

Service details & cost to come
Death avoidance is not an individual failing; it’s a cultural one. Facing death is not for the faint-hearted. It is far too challenging to expect that each citizen will do so on their own. Death acceptance is the responsibility of those who have been tasked with creating physical and emotional environments where safe, open interaction with death and dead bodies is possible.
