Zoë Sherwood is the heart and mind behind Forrest Mourning Deathcare. She holds a Class-1 Funeral Director Licence in the province of Ontario, graduating with honours from the Humber College Funeral Services program in 2015. After working for a few years she left the industry, feeling disenchanted, to take care of her health. This eventually led to a career shift into fashion and design. All the while she was thinking of how she could best help to improve the industry she is so passionate about.
Forrest Mourning is the culmination of her education, skills and experiences coming together to create a thoughtful offering that intends to improve modern burial practices, inspire people to make more environmentally conscious decisions, and create a lasting positive impact on the lives of the people she works with.
