“As women in funeral service, we often navigate this field quietly, with grit and grace, but this conference reminds me that we don’t have to do it alone.” Katey Houston
“Six years ago, I won the PWC scholarship from The Funeral Service Foundation - ever since then, I have returned to this event year after year, never forgetting the impact that this incredible gathering has had on me as a professional and as a person. Thank you, NFDA and FSF, for caring about the future of funeral service.” Allyse Worland
