Even as a young teenager, I knew I wanted to become a funeral director when I grew up. Perhaps an odd dream for a child, but I knew in my heart that I could help people by assisting them in saying their goodbyes. Now looking back on my career of over 25 years in the funeral industry, my views on the particulars of life have definitely changed for the better. There’s so much to learn about life while working with death.
