On today’s episode, I am joined by 4th generation owner of White Funeral Homes, Mike White. Mike’s family has been serving the Twin Cities community in Minnesota for more than 125 years, and currently own and operate 5 funeral homes in the South Metro area of Minneapolis and St. Paul.
Mike has an amazing vantage point of life, loss and what it is like working daily with families who have experienced loss. He and his sister, Meg, have followed in the footsteps of their father, grandfather and great-grandfather, and are working with the next generation of the White family to continue to carry on their legacy – a truly remarkable achievement for any small business! Mike shares some fascinating history of his industry, as well as practical and helpful insight into what questions to think about when it comes to funeral and visitation planning.
