“There is no grief like the grief that does not speak”
My Story
My name is Kerri L'Etoile and this business is a dream I have had for many years. I am originally from Cape Cod Massachusetts. My career there, was 25+ years of healthcare in several areas of Cape Cod Hospital. I moved to Colorado in 2015. Moving so far from home and family was a massive change for me. I needed to find my calling, something to make a difference. After some thought, I decided to return to my family roots and study Mortuary Science. After 4 years as a Funeral Director, I knew I needed to do more for families. I knew families needed me to help them along this path that can be scary and uncertain.

Dates to begin the process must be decided on in advance, as well as details about prescription pickup, attendants, etc. Payment Structure: ● Advance payment is required due to the nature of my services. ● A second 4-hour block may be purchased after the first has been completed OR services may be paid by the hour. ●The addition of mileage may be considered when it is deemed necessary ● Invoicing is online and payment can be sent through Venmo, Zelle or arrangements can be made for cash or check.
