ASD is pleased to share this Guest Blog Post from Lucille Rosetti, creator of thebereaved.org. Her website sheds light on the complicated emotions surrounding death and loss while sharing tools to help those who are grieving through this process. In this Guest Blog Post, Lucille outlines the importance of making funeral arrangements in advance and provides helpful resources families can use to start the process.

One of the chief purposes of ASD’s blog and social media is to highlight the compassion, dedication and reverence funeral directors exhibit day in and day out. In this post, we wanted to share some moving passages we have come across that underline the crucial importance of those that work in the funeral service community. We hope this brings some inspiration to your day!

In this guest blog post from Dr. Jason Troyer of Mt.

Funeral Home Trade Shows provide a unique opportunity to help us broaden our understanding of the funeral service community.
