A mother and animal lover, Jane brings dedication, compassion and more than a decade of experience to her work at Kane & Fetterly. A graduate in social work at McGill, she applied her learning in several fields, including foster care, mental health and HIV/AIDS intervention before discovering her passion for aftercare counselling.
“I answered a question addressed to the participants in a career workshop I had organized. The question was; If money was not an issue, what would you do for free? My answer (that surprised even me) was work in a funeral home. And from my very first day here, I knew I had finally found my place. From the minute I arrive in the morning to the moment I leave in the evening (often close to 10 pm), I want to be here.”
Jane also understands that it is the small things that the staff at Kane & Fetterly do that make the biggest difference to their clients.
“Although our premises themselves are warm and welcoming, the true privilege is to work with such a compassionate and dedicated team of co-workers that will always go the extra mile for the people they serve.”
