"I work for the family. Not the funeral home."
Lena Killion has lived what she calls a really big life. A theater major by education, her career crossed multiple industries — construction, aerospace procurement at Bell Helicopter, stay-at-home motherhood, competitive bodybuilding. She built skills in every season without knowing what they were being built for.
Then her grandmother passed. She pre-planned everything — left no burden, no arguments, no scrambling. A quiet, dignified exit. It changed the way Lena saw the world.
MLK Pre Arrangements — an independent funeral pre-planning company serving families across Texas and multiple states. Lena works as an independent broker, not tied to any single funeral home, so families get real options at real prices before a crisis forces the decision.
She saved one family $8,300 on a headstone and delivered it in three weeks. That's what independent means.

A headhunter called about a funeral industry job Lena did not want. She said no. The headhunter called back two months later. Lena heard it as a sign, took the job, immersed herself — and watched families come in at their lowest and get turned away because they couldn't afford the services.
She walked out without a plan. It was the best decision she ever made. She built MLK Pre Arrangements because families deserve an advocate before they ever need one.
