On this episode, we are joined by Jamie Dravecky. Her journey in funeral service began when she was 19 years old. She is a graduate of Worsham College of Mortuary Science and holds a bachelor’s degree in business management. She is the Senior Account Executive for Homesteaders. Homesteaders is an organization providing products and services to promote and support the funding of advanced funeral planning and end-of-life expenses, which began in 1906 in Des Moines, Iowa. Before joining Homesteaders, Jamie held almost every role in funeral service. 

When Jamie decided to step away from direct funeral services, she joined Homesteaders. She understands what it’s like to wake up to early morning calls and support families during their most difficult times with compassion. She enjoys working with funeral homes that are seeking to try something new. She enjoys helping funeral home owners find innovative ways to connect with their communities, whether through events or unconventional ideas.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
