Sean E. Thompson
Sean was born and raised in Ada, OK and moved to Edmond, OK after high school. Attending the University of Central Oklahoma, Sean received his Mortuary Science certification and became the youngest person to ever be licensed in the State of Oklahoma as a Funeral Director and Embalmer. Sean moved to Waco, TX for three years where he met Cynthia. After being married, they moved back to Edmond and were there until July of 2003 when they moved to the beautiful state of Arizona. Purchasing the funeral home in July of 2005 was a dream come true for Sean. Having done nothing but the funeral business his whole life, he was now able to do it under his own shingle and he views it much like a ministry. Sean and his wife Cynthia reside in Avondale and have three grown children.

Cynthia D. Thompson
Cynthia was born in Houston, Texas. She grew up through her teen years in Mexico City and Guadalajara, as her parents were missionaries. She moved back to Texas and met Sean in 1994. They were married in 1995. That is when she was introduced to the funeral business. They were blessed to move to the West Valley in 2003 and to purchase the funeral chapel in 2005.
