I am very excited to have this amazing opportunity to work under the direction of Bob and Jenn Sinnott, and to be apart of the Sinnott funeral home family! I was raised in Albia and attended Albia Community Schools, I graduated with the class of 17'. I currently attend Indian Hills Community College and will graduate with my Associate of Arts degree in the Spring of 19'. I will then transfer to Des Moines Area Community College to begin my mortuary science schooling. Having the same values as the family does at Sinnott funeral home, I have felt welcomed and excited for the future! Wish me luck on this new and exciting journey!

I was born and raised in Calmar, Iowa. I graduated from South Winneshiek High School in 1965. In the fall of 1965, I enlisted in the US Army, serving one year active duty in Vietnam, and awarded the Purple Heart. On return home, I completed a Business/Accounting course at Northeast Iowa Area Community College in Clamar, and I began employment with Thorp Financial Services in their office in Oelwein, Iowa. On April 3, 1970, I married Phyllis Sharp of Decorah, Iowa, and to this union three sons were born and raised.

In May of 1970 , Thorp transferred me to their office in Austin, MN. In 1972, I was transferred to Crookston, MN. My family and I spent the next seventeen years in various cities in Minnesota.
