What a fantastic day in Traverse City, Michigan. The awesome folks at Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home hosted the 13th edition of the Michigan Summit on Tuesday and it was a total home run. Fantastic hosts, great group of funeral professionals looking to grow, develop and lead the way forward. The collaboration was fantastic. We're already looking forward to Grand Rapids 2027!

This past week, Locke Funeral Services in Waterloo, Iowa, completed the Outward Performance Workshop. We began this journey together in September 2025 and completed the workshop last Tuesday. The workshop was facilitated by Graystone's very own Michael Wellensiek, a Certified Arbinger Facilitator.

Over the past year, the leadership teams at Kearney and Flanner Buchanan have also completed the Outward Performance Workshop.

Kudos to Eric Locke, Ryan Crean, and Jan Smith for their commitment to investing in their people and intentionally focusing on culture within their respective organizations. Building and sustaining a strong culture takes time, commitment, and leadership—and these teams have demonstrated all three.

Congratulations to everyone involved!
