The NFDA Service of Remembrance, celebrating the lives of funeral professionals who died during the past year, will be held on Tuesday, October 22 during the 2024 NFDA International Convention & Expo (October 20-23 in New Orleans).

If there is a NFDA member, employee of a member firm, immediate family member of a member, or retired member who died during the last year that you would like to have recognized during the service and whose name should be published in the Service of Remembrance program, please submit their name to NFDA through our simple online form. If we receive a decedent’s name from multiple states, the name will be listed in the program under the state in which they last resided.

Names must be submitted by Monday, July 1, to be included. Names received after this date will be included in the 2025 Service of Remembrance.
