Deborah Vergoes Houwens

Housekeeping Lead

Originally from South Africa, Deborah grew up and completed her college education there before moving to Toronto, Canada in 1998. She raised her four children in Toronto and later relocated to British Columbia. Recently, she settled in Shawnigan Lake after living in Brentwood Bay.

With over eight years of experience owning and operating her own cleaning business, Deborah was ready for a meaningful change - one that would allow her to make a real difference in people’s lives. She believes Cedars is the perfect place to do just that.

Outside of her work at Cedars, Deborah is an active volunteer with the Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue in Cowichan Bay. In her free time, she enjoys hiking with her dog, canoeing, and spending time with her family and friends.
