Who We Are at Ambassador Associates Distinctive Funeral Supplies has been serving funeral professionals with our quality and dependable products since 1957. We are a 5th generation family owned and operated business.
Veteran sales representative Charlie Sauer was with our company for over 60 years, offering superior funeral supplies and sales in the Northeast US and abroad. He was a US Army veteran of WWII, a devoted husband, father, and truly was an inspiration to all who met him. He was dedicated professional in funeral supply sales and loved working with funeral homes and funeral directors in their mission of providing comfort, consolation and hope to families who have lost a loved one. Charlie Sauer passed away on June 5, 2014, may God rest his soul.
