Congratulations to the 2007/2008 Pursuit of Excellence Award Recipients!
Ranked among the top two percent of funeral homes nationwide, the Pursuit of Excellence Program’s award recipients are dedicated to maintaining a positive image for funeral service by consistently providing outstanding service to families, ongoing education to staff and adherence to only the highest ethical and professional standards. Visit the 2008 Pursuit of Excellence Award Recipients page to check out the “who’s who” in funeral service excellence.
As part of the Pursuit of Excellence Program’s entry process, funeral homes are asked to submit an essay describing an innovative and creative program or service that benefits the families or communities involved. Up to 10 essays will be chosen as the program’s “Best of the Best.” This year, nine firms were chosen to receive this prestigious award. Visit the 2008 Best of the Best page to see which ideas the Pursuit of Excellence Committee found particularly innovative and meaningful.
The best funeral homes, the best funeral directors, are compelled to do more than expected for their communities and the families they serve. From spending hours tracking down that special song for a service, to educating the public about cremation -the finest funeral directors have a passion for exceeding expectations. NFDA seeks to honor these outstanding firms with the Pursuit of Excellence Program. This international award program benefits participating funeral homes by:
- Increasing name recognition within the community, resulting in a competitive, marketable advantage.
- Generating new business, resulting in increased profit margins.
- Providing the necessary tools for successful media coverage.
