Custom Section 1
- My interest and passion for this vocation rooted from my family's experience as an owner and manager of a family owned and operated funeral service provider in my hometown of Lingayen, Pangasinan Province of the Philippines. My parents were instrumental in my pursuit of the knowledge of preparation and taking care of a deceased member of our community like they are our own family members. I saw how my parents took care of every detail of each individual's pre-viewing needs to support each family's request, and thereby assist them get through this part of their grieving process.
