In recognition of National Nurses Week, our locations gifted scented candles and gift baskets as a token of appreciation to the brave nurses and personal support workers of organizations like Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice and Stedman Community Hospice. Now more than ever, it was important to us to show our appreciation for their outstanding commitment to providing compassionate care to our community. When it came to the gifts, it was equally important that we support local businesses like Denninger's Foods of the World and @VintageBrothersLtd. To all of the Nurses, Personal Support Workers and Caregivers, we appreciate all that you do for our community!

Just like you plan for retirement or revisit your Will, pre-planning final arrangements is an important, yet often overlooked way to ensure you’ve taken care of family. This week, we will be sharing some WHYs to preplan.

Social Media can play an important part in the healing process in many individuals who are dealing with grief; especially during the pandemic. Annie Horton has created emerging.grief, an Instagram account aimed at providing bereavement support in an online community setting. She's shared her own stories of loss, including the death of her brother-in-law Nick Cordero. http://ow.ly/e9YM50CbwrU

Publishing an online obituary allows a family more opportunities to share about their loved one. Photos, special moments and a life story can all be centralized in the guestbook, as well as allowing for digital condolences. It can also act as a permanent memorial that the family can revisit on occasion to re-read some of the messages left by other family members and friends. Many online guestbooks also offer the opportunity for guests to share a photo along with the condolence. Below are some tips to help you craft your message of sympathy and support.

On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, Canadians remember.
