Providing Comfort & Companionship
During Difficult Times

Larkin Mortuary is honored to introduce the newest members of our care team: our Grief Therapy Dogs, Finn and Colter.

Finn and Colter — Larkin Mortuary Therapy Dogs

Here When You Need Comfort Most

We understand that navigating loss is incredibly difficult. Finn and Colter are specially trained to offer gentle comfort, unconditional love, and emotional support to grieving families.

Their primary job is to provide comfort when you are sad. They are excellent listeners — whether you need to talk or simply share a quiet moment together.

If you feel your family would benefit from their calming presence, please ask a Larkin staff member to arrange a visit with them during your time with us.
