About Us
We know that when you own a business, you are forced to wear a lot of hats in order for your business to succeed. Our approach at FTP is to allow you to focus on doing what you love to do by developing a business partnership, rather than just providing a service. We are constantly striving to better understand what our clients want, so we can focus on building a stronger future and better refine the services that we provide.

Frank B. Rosenacker
Partner
I’ve had the wonderful opportunity to balance a family-filled personal life along with my professional life. Every calling I have had the good fortune to “undertake” has and continues to be family oriented. I started my career as a funeral director/embalmer with my family’s funeral business, now in its 113th year of operation, caring for those in a time of need.
When I decided to go to law school, I taught at the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science, nurturing entry-level students to serve families in need.
My military career opened my eyes to an Air Force family and to all of us lucky enough to call ourselves US citizens.
I then came back to funeral service, first with Trust 100, a company dedicated to keeping independent family-owned funeral homes operational and profitable.
For the last 27 years I have owned and operated Rosenacker & Associates and Frank B. Rosenacker Co., LPA.
Kurt Rosenacker
Partner
Kurt is a 5th generation funeral director from Cincinnati, OH, where his family owns two funeral homes. He has two sons, Jack and Finn. He is a 2005 graduate of Oakland University where he played baseball and majored in History. After graduation, he pursued a career in coaching and took his first job as an assistant baseball coach at Tennessee Tech University in Cookeville, TN.
He decided to move back to Cincinnati and that’s when Kurt decided to enter the family business and go to mortuary school. He graduated from the Cincinnati College of Mortuary Science in 2012 Magna Cum Laude.
Upon graduation, Kurt found his niche in funeral preplanning. He is a $million producer who enjoys helping other pre-need counselors find success in the business.
When Kurt is not working he enjoys wrestling with his boys and going to Cincinnati Reds games.
