Kaley Altman is the backbone of Bayview Funeral Home. She started her apprenticeship in 2022, and is on track to receive her Mortuary Science degree by 2023.
Kaley is originally from Littleton, Colorado and moved to Oregon in 2019. She then worked for Eric Anderson at Hughes-Ransom Mortuary in Astoria and Seaside, and then moved up to Washington to work for him at Bayview Funeral Home. Kaley has a sweet rescue dog named Jinx, who is a blue heeler mix. You'll often see them playing at the park across from Bayview. They are enjoying exploring the area, going to the beach, and hiking.
