Monday, July 11, 2011
Funeral Directors Life Insurance Company (FDLIC), Abilene, TX, was recently recognized by the Pennsylvania Funeral Directors Association (PFDA) for 10 years of service as the endorsed preneed insurance provider of the Association.
The award was presented at the PFDA's annual officer installation meeting, held at the prestigious Hotel Hershey in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Ted Nielsen, Director of Marketing and Membership Development for PFDA's Unichoice division, and John Eirkson, who serves as the Executive Director of the PFDA, presented the award to Kris Seale (FDLIC's President and CEO) and Paul Lovelace (VP of Corporate Development).
"We are extremely honored by this recognition," said Kris Seale. "But more meaningful than a plaque is what the plaque represents: 10 years of mutual trust, partnership and service to families. It is our desire to do what is right by our funeral home clients and the families they serve, and it is our common goals and vision that have united FDLIC and the PFDA through the years. We are deeply appreciative of the confidence and trust they have placed in us."
"PFDA has had an outstanding relationship with FDLIC," said Ted Nielsen. "We appreciate their efforts with the operation of the company, the way they conduct their business and day-to-day affairs. Our partnership with FDLIC has been very good for us and for our member funeral homes."
Since the relationship began between PFDA and FDLIC in 2001, nearly $100 million in preneed funeral plans have been written, translating to approximately 20,000 families and individuals served.
