Marc Malamud brings extraordinary compassion to one of life’s most sacred moments. His commitment to ensuring every person experiences a respectful, peaceful, and dignified transition is felt immediately, and it makes all the difference for those transitioning and the people who love them.

Good afternoon Marc,
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you again for everything you did to support my brother and help him get the business started. It really means a lot to us, and we can tell you genuinely cared about him, something we’ll never forget.
As we continue the business in his memory, my siblings and I are working together to keep it going and help it grow. We’d really like to keep you involved and have you be part of this journey with us just like our brother would’ve wanted.

Marc helped my sister and me create a zoom celebration for my brother Peter.  He is in a late stage of Pulmonary Fibrosis, and we decided we wanted to create a gathering where he could meet with and celebrate memories and relationships with family, friends, and coworkers he has had in his 83 years.
Marc was able to provide all the technical support needed to pull this zoom gathering off.  Along with that he also created a video of my brother’s life from photos several people sent him.  He sent out forms that allowed anyone who wanted to send photos or messages to be able to do so.  He also recorded the gathering and uploaded the video and the recording of the meeting onto a YouTube channel.  None of these wonderful things would have been possible without his knowledge, patience, understanding and kindness.
It was clear that Marc brought a respect and understanding of what my family and my brother are going through and he met us in a lovely, helpful, and compassionate way.
I believe Marc brings some very special qualities to his desire to become an End-of-Life Doula and I heartfeltly support him and hope you will consider helping him participate in this training.
Respectfully

I am writing this to recommend Marc Malamud for a scholarship for your End Of Life Doula Training. He recently organized and produced a Celebration of the Life for my dear brother (who has a progressive lung disease) that one of my sisters and I created. His technical skills and suggestions were wonderful and helped make the day all that we hoped it would be and more. His sensitivity to the mental and emotional states of all involved, his deep understanding of the various places people in such situations find themselves made the creation of this event that was so important to us go beautifully.
He shared with me that he had created many of these kinds of celebrations, mostly for those already deceased during COVID, giving him an interest in and experiences he can bring to this special training.
I hope you will give him this scholarship as I believe he will be a great End of Life Doula. Thank you for the work that you all do. I call End of Life "the other door". It's a privilege to be there for people at that time.
Peace,
Elizabeth Percival
