Thank you Nelson-Berna Funeral Home & Moore’s Chapel Funeral Home for becoming our newest member of the Corporate Leadership Circle.

As parents of former Fayetteville Public School students, my wife Paula and I have seen first-hand the quality of education our kids received and wanted to be a part of insuring that all kids can receive that same gift in the future. As business owners we feel investment in kid’s education is one of the most important investment we can make and are proud to support the Fayetteville Education Foundation.
