Dora


Grief Support Dog

Dora is one of the more common faces you will see around the funeral home, but maybe not what you are expecting!  She joined Rick and Kelly’s family in December 2021, and quickly showed her calm, gentle manner.  This translated into Dora coming to work and then greeting families who were grieving.

This rescue dog from the Humane Society of Greater Niagara was meant to be!  Comfort animals are not service dogs; they simply provide a peaceful presence in situations where people are experiencing stress, anxiety, or emotional distress.  Dora is available, upon request, to attend visitations, but is also often in the building on a day-to-day basis.  She doesn’t jump, and won’t go out the door, but she loves pets, and may even offer a kiss or two!
