Obituaries with a Twist

Picture this: You're flipping through the local paper, and suddenly, you're not just reading about who passed, but also what made them truly unique. That's the magic of Kraft's obituaries. They're not just about the dearly departed; they're about the dearly departed with a story to tell.

Meet the Mastermind

At the helm of this quirky operation is Mike Kraft, a fourth-generation funeral director who's turned the traditional obituary on its head. He's not your average mortician; he's a storyteller, a humorist, and a man on a mission to make end-of-life celebrations, well, fun.

Obituaries: The New Comedy Hour

Mike's not afraid to get a little silly, a little irreverent. Take Bill Leach, for instance. His obituary read, "Bill was a man of many talents. He could fix anything with duct tape, and he could make a mean martini. He also had a knack for making people laugh, even when he wasn't trying." Now that's a legacy!

Clyde W. Kraft

Or how about Patricia "Pat" McGuffin? Her obituary started with, "Pat was a woman who knew what she wanted and wasn't afraid to go after it. She once told her husband, 'I want a divorce,' and when he asked why, she replied, 'Because I want to marry a man who can make me laugh.'" Talk about going out with a bang!

Obituaries: The New Family Album

Mike doesn't just stop at humor. He weaves in heartwarming details, too. Like how Edith "Edie" Smith loved to dance, or how James "Jim" Brown was a history buff who could tell you anything about the Civil War. These aren't just obituaries; they're family albums, open for everyone to flip through.
