Over the next 18 years, the rate of cremation in the United States is projected to increase by nearly 30 percent according to the 2018 Cremation and Burial Report, released by NFDA.

This month, NFDA will release the ninth edition of “The History of American Funeral Directing” by Robert Habenstein and William Lamers.

The NFDA Policy Board met on July 7 and elected Christopher P. Robinson and John W. Wenig to serve as at-large representatives on the association's Board of Directors. 

Created especially for small to mid-size funeral home businesses, the NFDA Business Conference (July 11-13 at the Omni Grove Park Inn in Asheville, NC) will arm you with innovative solutions and essential business knowledge and tools to ensure growth, profitability and financial strength.

Funeral professionals who want to enhance their leadership skills to make a positive difference in their associations and the profession should attend the 2018 NFDA Leadership Conference, July 8-11 at the spectacular Omni Park Grove Inn in Asheville, NC.
