Having been raised in the funeral home environment, I learned and was taught by my parents how to compassionately help grieving families with GREAT care and concern. As your next Coroner, I would certainly continue to dedicate myself to serve the people of Pike County with the utmost compassion, respect and professionalism. To serve as your Coroner has been a great desire of my heart as well as profound aspiration. I have had to manage and coordinate several funerals of unnecessary deaths of younger people due to drug and alcohol abuse, bullying, as well as gang-related misfortunes and would work extensively to educate our youth against such improper behavior and living standards.
