Army Veteran to Funeral Director: Uncovering the Surprising Truths of a Compassionate Career

🤯 What do people think a Funeral Director does, vs. the humble reality?

Meet Amanda Shroyer, an Army veteran and one of the compassionate faces of our team. In our newest podcast episode, Amanda gets incredibly honest about the biggest misconception people have about her career.

She shares the deeply personal story of why she became a funeral director (it started with a heartfelt eulogy for her squad leader) and the unexpected joy of serving the less fortunate in our Southern Illinois community.

You need to hear this eye-opening conversation.
