“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.” — Mahatma Gandhi

It’s a quote we’ve shared before and one we keep coming back to, because it speaks so well to the heart of funeral service.

Funeral directors and morticians are called to serve families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, offering compassion, guidance, and care when it matters most.

Today we’re especially thankful for Richard, Heather, and Jeff, who serve families in our community every day with dedication and heart.

Happy National Funeral Director and Mortician Day.

Hug a funeral director today… or tag a mortician in the comments so we can help recognize them!
