Now that we are entering the warmer months, funeral processions are more frequent on the roads. There are many questions about etiquette and rules when approaching a funeral procession. Here is a helpful guide to answer some questions about this. Just by pausing a couple extra minutes to allow a family safety as they travel to the cemetery to honor their loved one means so much❤️

Duty, honor, sacrifice. Let us pause and remember all the brave men and women who gave everything so we may enjoy the freedoms we have today. As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day weekend, may we never forget those who courageously served and made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Tonight we had the honor of having some of our MKD funeral directors serve dinner to families who are staying at the Renucci House in Grand Rapids. It’s not only being able to walk with those who are going through a difficult time of loss, but also serving during a time of hardship away from home with a health crisis. We are so incredibly blessed to have amazing hospitals and facilities like this right here in our own community. We were privileged to provide a home made meal to hopefully bring a reminder of the tastes and comforts of home for a moment.

We recently had the privilege of sitting down with Deanna Falzone and learn about an incredible new opportunity she provides to capture the life and legacy of beloved parents and grandparents. This is a priceless treasure for generations to learn and preserve the story of family.

I’ve been filming a few LifeTree Legacy sessions lately… and every single time I walk away feeling so inspired.

I sit down with someone and we just start talking about their life…where they grew up, how they met their spouse, what raising kids was like, the hard seasons, the funny moments, the things they’ve learned along the way.

And honestly… I walk away learning so much every time and often gain a new perspective on life.

There’s something really powerful about hearing someone reflect on an entire life lived. The wisdom. The perspective. The little stories their family may have never even heard before.

It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite things I’ve ever done.

And the best part is knowing their kids and grandkids will have that forever…their voice, their stories, their personality. All in a video they can watch for years to come.

I have a couple openings coming up if anyone has a parent or grandparent they’d love to capture something like this with.

Send me a message 🤍
