  Bond Funeral Home, Inc.

  Associate

  My very first job. I started working toward my lifelong dream at the age of 15 when I began holding the door at wakes and evening services. It was here that I was first introduced to every aspect of the funeral business. I remained with Mr. Bond throughout my high school years. I will always be forever grateful for having the first chance that started my path.
