#548 Care Center Set Up with Duncan Stuart Todd
NFDA 2023 Las Vegas was a Blurr. Brian has a quick conversation with a company that has been setting up care centers for funeral homes since 1991. As government slowly chokes all of small business between regulation and fines, this company can help us stay current with what we need to be doing in the care center to keep Uncle Sam off our back. Rock and Roll !!!

#546 Brian bothers Ron King
"Hey Buddy" !!!!! Brian is bored one night and just gives Ron a call and records it. It sure is good to hear his voice. This is what they did for so many years, they would game plan and talk about everything. I have been going through all kinds of content and thought this was fitting to release. Enjoy the Jovial laugh of Ron King. Rest in Peace my friend.

Customer Reviews
Loyal Fan !
Hi Brian and Ryan ! I love this podcast so I
Am excited for what is to come. You all are such a special group of people that do what you do . You guys have had a tough time for your own reasons the past year and I wish you peace and endless blessings for you two personally and professionally ! I have special place in my heart for folks that care for the deceased .. I lost both of my parents (it’s been some years now) and called on a family owned Mortuary here in San Diego and I felt how much they cared for my parents and my family . It is something one never forgets . Just wanted you to know you guys are awesome 😊
The Artist and Mortician
Thanks for sharing this story! Outstanding! Being from Eastern IA I can picture exactly where these spectacular funeral homes are located and The Turner name. Had no idea of the connection with Grant Wood and Turner Funeral Family.
Undertaking the Podcast
I loved this podcast, especially Todd Van Beck. What has happened to it? Different podcasters and no Mr. Van Beck.
