Meet Keyora

Oakwood Location Manager

How long have you been a funeral arranger?

I have been in the funeral industry since 2021. Prior to becoming a funeral director, I was a carpenter in the residential building sector. When transitioning to the funeral industry, I unfortunately experienced a personal loss that realigned my priorities, and now I feel this role is where I am meant to be.

What do you like about being a funeral arranger?

As a funeral director, it’s incredibly rewarding to help families celebrate their brightest, strongest, and most precious interwoven family bonds as we assist in framing all the wonderful things that made their loved one so unique on their special day.

What do you enjoy in your spare time?

Outside of work, you'll usually find me in the kitchen at home; I love making my own cheese and bread. I also enjoy observing the night sky through a telescope and going on adventures with my two Beagles.

What makes your brand special?

The loss of our loved ones can leave us feeling lost, numb, confused, and heartbroken. The team at Oakwood will guide you through this difficult time, from your initial phone call to our dedicated staff caring for your loved one. Our experienced team will support you and your family throughout the arrangement process, on the day of the funeral, and provide aftercare in the weeks and months that follow.
