Funeral Director, Supervisor
I am the first funeral director in my family.
Born and raised in Grindstone, I graduated from Brownsville Area High School in 1991. I continued my education, graduating from California University of PA and The Pittsburgh Institute of Mortuary Science. I personally do the embalming at the funeral home and I am a licensed Pennsylvania Life Insurance Agent.
I am married to the former Janice Black. I attend Fort Burd UP Church and am a member of the Greater Brownsville Area Chamber of Commerce, member and former Past President of the Grindstone Lions Club, Brownsville Fire Co. No. 1 (Northside), Mon-Valley Funeral Directors Assn. and I am a board member of the Southwestern Funeral Directors Assn. As of May 25, 2005, I was also appointed Deputy Coroner for the Brownsville Area by the Fayette Co. Coroner P.E. Reilly, MD. I also design and manage the funeral homes website and social media sites. I am an avid golfer.
I take great pride in being a funeral director and helping those who call on me when in time of need.
