Dawn McNab (nee Watson)
Owner, Managing Funeral Manager
Dawn grew up on her parent’s farm near Priceville, where they raised beef cattle and Canadian Sport Horses. She attended MacPhail Memorial Elementary School in Flesherton and then Grey Highlands Secondary School. During her high school years, she was actively involved in the school’s activity council and later became President of the council.
Dawn attended Humber College in the Funeral Service Education program and graduated with honors in 2000. Her apprenticeship placement was at the G.H. Hogle Funeral Home in Etobicoke and she continued to work there as a licensed Funeral Director until she had the opportunity to move back home and work at the Breckenridge-Ashcroft Funeral Home in Owen Sound. Then in September of 2002 she became the proud owner of her own funeral home.
Since purchasing the Funeral Home, Dawn has made many changes to the interior, striving to make the décor warm and comfortable.
In October of 2010 she married Chris McNab. Chris is also involved in the community and assists with various duties at the Funeral Home. Together, Dawn and Chris, take pride in serving the town of Durham and surrounding communities with care and compassion.
