I joined Mead Mortuary in 2005 as an office assistant. I currently am a funeral arranger, and assist our families in making meaningful choices for their loved one. I am involved in several organizations in our community, and volunteer with them to help make our community a better place.

Having been born and raised in Barstow, my family had been familiar with Mead Mortuary for years. The funeral business has always fascinated me, and so, when I was given the opportunity to come work for Mead, I jumped at the chance. I’ve been working as a death certificate clerk and memorial specialist for nearly 2 years now and love my job. It is my deepest honor to serve the friends and families that come through our doors.

Born and raised in this area, I feel blessed with the opportunity to serve my community every day. I work as the administrative assistant for Mead Mortuary. My funeral industry career began in 2003 when I started making removals and assisting with funeral services. Eager to learn the business, I have been an apprentice embalmer, death certificate clerk, funeral arranger, interim manager, and am a licensed funeral director.

I have a long history with Funeral Service, my family owned O’Donnell Funeral Home, and had five locations in the surrounding area. I am a lifelong resident of Barstow and became a funeral arranger at Mead in 2007. I strive to help my families in every possible way because I believe that a family may forget what you said but they will never forget how you made them feel.
