Nisbett Funeral Home

Today, we pause to remember the little lives gone too soon. On this Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, we honour the babies lost during pregnancy, childbirth, or infancy — and the families who carry their memory every day.

At Nisbett Funeral Home, our hearts are with all parents, families, and loved ones who have experienced this profound loss. You are not alone, and your grief is seen, respected, and remembered.

At 7 PM, we invite you to join us in lighting a candle for the Wave of Light, a global tribute in remembrance of every tiny soul who left footprints on our hearts.

💙💗 Let their light shine forever.

⚾️ A Proud Peterborough Moment — Happening Tonight! ⚾️

All eyes will be on Yankee Stadium tonight as the Jays take on the Yankees, but for us here in Peterborough, the real excitement is seeing one of our own take centre stage! 🎤

Graham Rowat, a Peterborough native and accomplished Broadway performer, will have the incredible honour of singing both the Canadian and American national anthems before Game 3 of the American League Division Series. 🙌

With over 30 years of stage experience — from Les Misérables to 1776 — Graham has performed all over the world, but tonight he’ll step in front of a crowd of 46,000 fans at Yankee Stadium for his biggest solo audience yet. What an amazing moment for a proud Canadian and a true representative of Peterborough talent! 💙

We’ll be cheering you on, Graham! 👏
