As a wife of a funeral director and as a professional singer, Peggy has participated in funeral services most of her adult life. She has been involved with New Options since its inception over 10 years ago during which time she also became a licensed funeral director.
Scott knew by the time he was in the third grade he wanted to become a funeral director following in the family tradition. He has 25 years of experience and joined New Options nine years ago. Linda serves as the anchor in the office to support families and the rest of the New Options staff. Scott and his wife Linda have six children of whom several are interested in becoming a part of the funeral business.
We feel privileged as a family to work together and help other families in their time of need.
