Rotary Thursday 12 Noon In-Person and Zoom

As a junior in high school , I began working part-time at the local funeral home doing all of the day to day tasks in and around the facility. This also involved assisting with funerals, burials, and visiting hours. I continued to work here part-time, because I became employed full-time at a local business forms production facility and was able to raise my family. Eventually, I followed my calling and earned an Associates Degree in Applied Sciences , Funeral Service and Embalming, and have become a licensed NYS Funeral Director .
Here are a few things I am passionate about in my profession;
- Creating meaningful ways to pay tribute to a loved one by planning and producing indelible funerals, memorial services, and celebrations of life.
- Serving families with respect, integrity, and compassion; understanding their needs and providing support.
- Helping the bereaved and providing guidance and comfort during a time of loss.
- Maintaining a high level of excellence in all interactions, between families, fellow associates, and the professionals involved in end-of-life care.As a junior in high school , I began working part-time at the local funeral home doing all of the day to day tasks in and around the facility.
