Funeral Service Education Seminars and Consulting
Thank you for visiting my web page. I trust you will find the information you seek. I look forward to speaking with you soon.
As I am a full time funeral service education educator, my services for seminars and consulting are performed outside of my regular work hours at the college or on my personal leave. Therefore, my availability varies. Please contact me for more information. |
Convention & Seminar Speaker |
Embalming & Funeral Service Subject Matter Consulting (Legal) |
I have presented across the United States, and internationally, to a wide range and size of national, state, and local funeral associations. I can speak on a wide variety of topics (see Services tab). Participants of previous seminars have commented that the seminars were engaging, educational, and entertaining. I bring my deep, Southern drawl, conversation style presentation, and "Ennis version," to challenging concepts so that all participants can take away something of value for application to their workplace and to the families that they serve. Please see my list of references on the "Services" tab located at the top of the navigation bar.

"I believe that funeral service is a noble profession and a calling. I also believe that every funeral service professional has the capacity to learn. No one wants to sit in boring continuing education sessions. My mission is to take important information and meet the attendee in a place where learning is engaging and fun. If successful, the attendee has something to take home for application to those we serve. After all, it really is all about them, the families that we serve."
