Episode #12: Bonding Over Eulogies - A Conversation with Eric Froistad

Long-time friend Eric Froistad joins me on today’s episode. We share a birthday, a best friend (my husband!) and the heart-breaking burden of losing brothers unexpectedly much too soon. Because we, along with our other siblings, gave the eulogies at our brothers’ services, we have an additional connection that I wanted to explore. 

Eulogies include stories of the loved ones we have lost, and Eric is a master story-teller! His dedication to keeping Andy’s memory alive through stories is inspiring, and we hear some amazing ones today! 

Whether you’re thinking of who might someday give your eulogy, if you’ve been asked to give one, or you think about what someone might say about you at your funeral one day, our conversation is a must-listen.
