On this Remembrance Day, we honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of those who fought for our freedom. Lest we forget.

A heartfelt thank you to our longtime supporters Hulse, Playfair & McGarry for their generous donation of the proceeds from their 100th Anniversary Organ Recital Series! 🎶

These beautiful performances not only celebrated 100 years of tradition 🎉 but also supported community organizations like Hospice Care Ottawa. Attendees shared how moving and joyful the concerts were — a true celebration of music, history, and giving back.

We are so grateful for partners like Hulse, Playfair & McGarry, whose compassion helps us continue providing care and comfort to those who need it most. 💛

We were thrilled to welcome Rob Hoey, President of Funeral Support Services Co. Ltd. in Japan, and a former Hulse, Playfair & McGarry Funeral Director (1988–1993), along with his Japanese colleagues for a visit and tour of our Wakefield Chapel. 🇨🇦🇯🇵

Before moving to Japan, Rob was hired by a Japanese funeral company to introduce embalming — a practice that was just starting there, as previously only dry ice was used to preserve bodies.

It was wonderful to reconnect, share ideas, and enjoy the beauty of Gatineau’s fall colours together. 🍂

Our colleagues from Kemptville Chapel were sparkling at the 8th Annual Little Black Dress Event ✨🎭

They had a wonderful time attending the North Grenville Chamber of Commerce event in support of the Dave Smith Youth Treatment Centre. It was a night full of glamour, fun, and community spirit.
