Grace and Peace!
I'm David, a certified and trained death doula, LGBTQIA+ advocate, and missionary. On a purpose to empower families by ensuring that their loved ones receive the best possible care in the final moments of their lives. Making sure that the dying person's wishes are fulfilled within the resources available.
My first experience with death was when I was a very young child, and it sparked a wave of emotion in my mind. The first funeral I planned was when I was merely in my teens. I have been wholeheartedly serving the marginalized communities for years.
I actively campaign to make our society a better place for everyone, regardless of gender, ethnicity, and religion, in an effort to stop trans misgendering deaths. I strongly advocate and ensure that marginalized communities receive the utmost dignity after they pass away. I emphasize providing my service to the individuals who are without homes, loved ones, immediate families, or family members who are unable to process their grief, ensuring the dying person is honored during and after death.
I am honored to serve the greater Cincinnati area as board member of the TreeHouse Cincinnati. A writer and member of The Rapha Center, a Black affirming LGBTQ organization based in Miami, Florida. I serve at Hospice of Cincinnati and I've volunteered in Madison nursing homes, hospitals, and other hospices. I serve as a member and missionary of The Love Church(Lima, OH). I assisted with Hurricane Katrina relief and visited several nursing homes as a missionary.
EOL planning, Funeral planning, vigil watching, and respite care are some of the services I provide to families at such a vulnerable stage of life. I've arranged numerous funerals when the dying person or the families have asked for my help in reviewing their programs, videos, and making last-minute requests all before they go to rest.
My primary goal is to provide individuals and their families with the essential knowledge, compassion, and support during the EOL journey. Assist the dying person in transition with dignity, grace, and as peaceful as possible.
