Ep 209 | Aired 9/9/2020
My guest today on Up in Your Business is the president of one of the oldest family businesses in Arkansas; Justin Wittenberg of Ruebel Funeral Home.
Founded in 1901 on 6th and Main Streets, Ruebel is the oldest funeral home in Little Rock. It was in 1953 when Justin’s grandfather, Mr. George Wittenberg, hired on to the already established business as Secretary and eventually became part owner of Ruebel. Twenty years later, George’s son, Tom Wittenberg, would join the firm; becoming its president in 1983 and sole owner by 1997.
Today the family legacy lives on in Justin.
Listen to learn about the funeral business, tips for preparing for end of life care, how to navigate the grieving process, and how the Wittenbergs successfully transitioned their business from generation to generation.
