In this episode of PodCasket, Curtis Funk sits down with Jimmy Lucas—funeral director, family man, and all-around great storyteller—for a candid conversation that spans everything from funeral home beginnings and generational legacy to cattle ranching, scuba diving, and even amateur beekeeping.
They dive into the Lucas family's 165-year history in funeral service, the challenges of balancing business growth with personal values, and why running a funeral home is a lot like being a Lego-loving, emotionally intelligent problem solver. You'll also hear about Jimmy’s time in Child Protective Services, the story behind his famous Zippy Lucas chapel, and why grounding barefoot at sunset might just be the reset you didn’t know you needed.
It’s real talk about life, loss, and laughing through it all—plus a few unexpected stories (rattlesnakes, cold plunges, and first-grade do-overs included). Whether you're in deathcare or just love a good story, this one’s worth a listen.
