The Family Business is...a Funeral Home

We found ourselves in Mason City, Iowa where our host, Michael Libbie, was attending a funeral. That's how we ended up doing our broadcast from there. Here, Michael sits down with Alyssa Fullerton from the family owned Fullerton Funeral Home.  Alyssa is one of a handful of female funeral home directors in Iowa. They talk about the business of a funeral home, the growing number of women in the business, some changes she brought to the job and what she hears from friends when they learn what she does for a living.

The award winning Insight on Business the News Hour with Michael Libbie is the only weekday, hour-long business broadcast in the Midwest. The national, regional and local business news along with long-form business interviews can be heard Monday - Friday starting at 5:00pm on AM-940.
