Why Funeral Care Is More Than You Think! Supporting Grief, Death and Dying

Send us Fan MailOn this episode, we are joined by Jamie Dravecky. Her journey in funeral service began when she was 19 years old. She is a graduate of Worsham College of Mortuary Science and holds a bachelor’s degree in business management. She is the Senior Account Executive for Homesteaders. Homesteaders is an organization providing products and services to promote and support the funding of advanced funeral planning and end-of-life expenses, which began in 1906 in Des Moines, Iowa. Before joining Homesteaders, Jamie held almost every role in funeral service. When Jamie decided to step away from direct funeral services, she joined Homesteaders. She understands what it’s like to wake up to early morning calls and support families during their most difficult times with compassion. She enjoys working with funeral homes that are seeking to try something new. She enjoys helping funeral home owners find innovative ways to connect with their communities, whether through events or unconventional ideas.https://www.homesteaderslife.com/jamie-draveckySupport the showWe very much want to hear your thoughts.
