Bryce is as an Arizona boy through and through. He was born and raised in Mesa where he attended Mountain View High School. After graduation, he served a two-year service mission in Georgia. He graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in Applied Biological Sciences and a minor in Business. After working in Northern California for a short time, Bryce had a great desire to move back to Arizona and get involved in the family business. He recently graduated from the Mortuary Science program at Mesa Community College. Bryce and his wife, Ashley, have a beautiful little girl, Berklee. Bryce is also a huge sports fan, particularly of the Arizona Cardinals and Phoenix Suns, but his greatest satisfaction comes from serving the special families who entrust us with caring for their loved ones.

She also served as an Army medic during the Viet Nam Era. Her son is continuing the family’s military tradition, serving in the Army since 2000.

Besides her son, she has one daughter-in-law, one daughter and two wonderful grandchildren. Terry is an avid reader and enjoyed performing in community theater over an 8 year period in Elberton, GA.

Terry’s first exposure to the funeral industry was in Elberton, GA (The Granite Capitol of the World) while selling granite to funeral homes and cemeteries throughout the south and mid-west. Upon returning to Arizona in 2011, it was an easy transition into her current role as Family Relations Associate at our A Wise Choice Desert View Chapel.
