Reflecting on a Record Year

A message from President, CEO & Board Chair Steve Shaffer.

As we reflect on the past year, I’m reminded that longevity in this profession is never accidental. It is earned through trust, discipline and an unwavering commitment to keep promises when families need us most.

What began in 1906 with a few like-minded individuals has grown into the second largest bereavement planning and care provider in North America. Our success is both humbling and energizing, reinforcing the responsibility we carry to support funeral professionals and the families they serve.
