TESTIMONIALS
“To summarize in a few sentences the gift Susan was to us over the past 21 months of our family’s cancer journey up to my husband’s final hours, and his following memorial service, feels like an impossible task.
From start to finish she helped us make the necessary shifts that would pave the way for the eventual step of letting go. Susan brought gentleness, compassion, clarity, insight, wisdom, presence of mind, and tenderness of heart. She helped us hold the kind of space that allowed us to be close to one another while simultaneously preparing ourselves to let go.
Some of the most tender and meaningful memories of Timmy’s final days were of watching Susan as she sat beside him or stood at his feet whispering calming and reassuring words that helped him remain present while preparing him to surrender.
Susan has been a companion to us through the thick and thin of my husband’s walk with pain, cancer, and eventually his final hours and passing. These moments were nothing short of sacred. I am forever grateful to her.”

"What you did for me and my family will not be forgotten. We have received many comments on how beautiful and powerful my son’s memorial service was and you had a great deal to do with that.
Susan, your words helped bring it all together for people in a way that benefitted everyone.
It is almost impossible to understand suicide.
You accomplished exactly what I had hoped for. Thank-you!"

"My dear friend was nearing the end of his life when he was sent home for home hospice. I knew that he needed to find peace, acceptance, comfort, and guidance through this difficult and scary time.
I reached out to Susan immediately. She was so kind to make time to come visit with all of us. Susan is an angel sent from above! The energy, compassion, guidance and wisdom she brought to us all was incredible and much needed.
Watching and experiencing Susan (a certified death doula) as I like to say “do her thing” with such loving grace was essential for my dear friend,
his family and close friends. Susan listened, sang, prayed and brought such unimaginable calmness and energy that enable my dear friend to pass peacefully.”

"I’ve known Susan for 14 years. She has helped me through many physical and emotional challenges, but this was my first experience with working with Susan as a death doula.
My mom was a very private person, but Susan connected easily with her, helping her to feel safe and honored. My mom’s peaceful passing was greatly due to Susan’s respectful manner. Personally, this allowed me to have beautiful moments with mom, sharing all that was in my heart. Death no longer scared my mom or me.
I am very grateful for Susan’s ability to know when to listen and when to intervene."
