Kelsi Tesone Mathews

Owner, Mortuary Science Practitioner

Kelsi graduated from Broomfield High School in 2006 and immediately went into the accredited Mortuary Science Program at ACC. She graduated in 2008 on a Presidential Scholarship with her AAS in Mortuary Science. She passed The International Conference of Funeral Service Examining Boards where she earned her title as MSP. Kelsi started as a Funeral Director and Embalmer for a small family funeral firm, went on to work for an Organ Procurement Agency, and eventually settled back in her passion as Funeral Director.

In October 2017, Kelsi saw a need for more choices in her community and started In Memoriam. She holds her PreNeed license in Colorado and continues to self-police and advocate for Funeral Professionals across the state. She is past president for the Denver Metro Funeral Directors Association, sits on the Advisory Committee for the Mortuary College, and currently holds title as secretary on the Executive Board for the Colorado Funeral Directors Association.

Her official title is Mortuary Science Practitioner, which means she is a Funeral Director and Embalmer. She is here to support, educate, and continuously raise the bar higher for death-care practices. To say she loves her work is an understatement. She loves her babies, the beach, good music, and good food!

Santiago Mathews

Funeral Director

Santiago Mathews, Funeral Director, was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He spent his whole childhood in various countries in South America, most notably, Peru. Santiago and Kelsi met through a mutual friend when she was in Mortuary School and he has been by her side ever since and it's safe to say he found this role to be a title he is utterly passionate for. He is not only a Funeral Director and Cremation Technician, but involved in the daily management of the funeral home. There is nothing he can't fix around the home and keeps the interior and exterior of the facility pristine. In his spare time he enjoys watching UFC, working out, and being a wonderful father.
