Danville, IL – Two Des Moines Area Community College (DMACC) mortuary science students won scholarships to help them advance their academic careers. Jeremy Cranston won a scholarship from Watts Vault and Monument Company, and Kyle Pospisil won a scholarship from Trigard.
 
The scholarship winners and their classmates traveled from Des Moines, Iowa, to Danville, Illinois. Hosted by the Darby family along with Scott Watts and Lowell Coburn from Watts Vault, the students experienced many facets of the death care industry during their tour of Trigard’s manufacturing and funeral home facilities.
Trigard and Watts Vault, a proud Trigard dealer, are committed to investing in the next generation of funeral directors who will care for families across the country.
