Our Sunset Stone Staff – Meet The Team

Gabrielle Crawford

Office Manager and Accounting

The roles Gabe plays demonstrates her great people skills and amazing ability to crunch numbers—not to mention her lightning quick fingers on a calculator. . . . Her little pug, Ashley, loves to keep her company when she’s not at work, and Gabe’s new iPad may very well be the culprit of keeping her up late past her bedtime.

Mike Latreille

Memorial Designer

Originally from Montreal, Mike graduated from his studies and moved to Toronto for a year to begin his career in design. In 2001 he made Calgary his permanent home, bringing his skills across the country and serving the Sunset community since 2008. After hours, Mike can be found dining on a hearty meal of pasta, reading, or watching a movie . . . and sometimes, if you’re lucky, see him taking a stroll in quiet contemplation beneath the dimming light of a twilight sky.

Peggy Williams

Shop Manager

Peggy comes to us all the way from St. John’s, Newfoundland. For the past 7 years she has used her exceptional organizational skills and hands-on approach in the shop and extended her role at Sunset by becoming the shop manager. When she’s not dreaming about her favourite restaurant back home, Ches’s Fish & Chips, a Jiggs Dinner, or winning the lottery, she enjoys spending time with her family, including her 3 dogs, a cat and a ferret.

Ed Parent

Installer and Sandblaster

With his extensive sandblasting experience, Ed joined Sunset to help with the carving and
installing of our monuments. When asked what drives him in his work, he responds: “Giving the families a beautiful final memory.” Ed knows the importance of family and spends as much time as he can with them outside of work. The Make-A-Wish® foundation is an organization he proudly supports and one that inspires him to be the best dad he can be.

Susan Johnstone

Columbarium Sales and Marketing Consultant

Susan comes to us after serving as a Board of Director for a local community association for 13 years. Her love of photography, beautiful landscapes, and designs that enrich a space, are what led her to her current position at Sunset. In her spare time, she enjoys life by traveling, skiing, jogging—and to offset all that exercise—eating.

Brynn Choquette

Columbarium Technician

Brynn is a jack-of-all-trades with a strong engineering background in oil and gas. Moving to Calgary in early 2015, he already considers this city home. If he is not spending his free time in the gym, he can be found dabbling in music, art or pretty much any sport.
