Resources for Dying with Grace

As a resource list is dynamic, this one represents only some of the many available providers and may change from time to time.  Resources are listed in no particular order and their inclusion does not represent a recommendation.

Many of those represented here are Canadian and local (Vancouver Island and BC) resources, however the list is ever expanding and will grow to include services and providers in other locations.
