Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2001, are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000, included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (file number 0-9341).

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The estimates susceptible to significant change are those used in determining
the liability for future policy benefits and claims, those used in determining
valuation allowances for mortgage loans on real estate, and those used in
determining the estimated future costs for pre-need sales. Although some
variability is inherent in these estimates, management believes the amounts
provided are adequate.

2. Comprehensive Income

For the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, total comprehensive income
amounted to $1,189,256 and $165,373, respectively. For the three months ended
June 30, 2001, total comprehensive income amounted to $526,238 and $137,002,
respectively.

3. Capital Stock

In accordance with SFAS 128, the basic and diluted earnings per share amounts
were calculated as follows:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis

Overview

The Company's operations over the last several years generally reflect six
trends or events which the Company expects to continue: (i) increased attention
to "niche" insurance products, such as the Company's funeral plan policies and
interest sensitive products; (ii) emphasis on cemetery and mortuary business;
and (iii) capitalizing on lower interest rates by originating and refinancing
mortgage loans.

Results of Operations

Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2000

Total revenues increased by $7,876,000, or 27.3%, to $36,762,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, from $28,887,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2000. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $6,082,000 increase
in mortgage fee income, a $666,000 increase in net investment income, and a
$1,184,000 increase in net mortuary and cemetery sales.

Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $17,000, or .3%, to
$6,583,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,600,000 for the
comparable period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the adjustment of
the amortization rate of unearned premium reserve to the Company's current
actuarial assumptions.

Net investment income increased by $666,000, or 11.3%, to $6,560,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, from $5,894,000 for the comparable period in 2000.
This increase was primarily attributable to additional interest earned as a
result of a greater number of loan originations during the six months of 2001.

Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $1,184,000, or 22.8%, to $6,370,000
for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $5,186,000 for the comparable
period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery
sales.

Mortgage fee income increased by $6,082,000, or 54.8%, to $17,190,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2001, from $11,108,000 for the comparable period in
2000. This increase was primarily attributable to a greater number of loan
originations during the six months of 2001 due to lower interest rates resulting
in more borrowers refinancing their mortgage loans.

Total benefits and expenses were $35,468,000, or 96.5%, of total revenues for
the six months ended June 30, 2001, as compared to $28,439,000, or 98.5%, of
total revenues for the comparable period in 2000.

Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future
policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $114,000, or 1.9%, to $6,171,000
for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,057,000 for the comparable
period in 2000. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in death
claims.

Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of insurance acquired
decreased by $369,000, or 15.9%, to $1,949,000 for the six months ended June 30,
2001, from $2,318,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was in
line with actuarial assumptions.

10
General and  administrative  expenses  increased  by  $5,958,000,  or 34.0%,  to
$23,468,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from $17,510,000 for the
comparable period in 2000. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in
commissions and other expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations
having been made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the six months of
2001.

Interest expense increased by $723,000, or 80.8%, to $1,617,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 2001, from $894,000 for the comparable period in 2000.
This increase was primarily due to additional warehouse lines of credit required
for the additional mortgage loan originations by the Company's mortgage
subsidiary.

Cost of goods and services sold of the mortuaries and cemeteries increased by
$603,000, or 36.3%, to $2,263,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2001, from
$1,660,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to
additional pre-need cemetery sales.

Second Quarter of 2001 Compared to Second Quarter of 2000

Total revenues increased by $3,200,000, or 21.0%, to $18,468,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2001, from $15,268,000 for the three months ended June 30,
2000. Contributing to this increase in total revenues was a $2,102,000 increase
in mortgage fee income, a $320,000 increase in net investment income and an
$871,000 increase in net mortuary and cemetery sales.

Insurance premiums and other considerations decreased by $104,000, or 3.2%, to
$3,102,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $3,206,000 for the
comparable period in 2000. This decrease was primarily due to the adjustment of
the amortization rate of unearned premium reserve to the Company's current
actuarial assumptions.

Net investment income increased by $320,000, or 10.4%, to $3,411,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2001, from $3,091,000 for the comparable period in
2000. This increase was primarily attributable to additional interest earned as
a result of a greater number of loan originations during the second quarter of
2001.

Net mortuary and cemetery sales increased by $871,000, or 35.0%, to $3,362,000
for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $2,491,000 for the comparable
period in 2000. This increase is primarily due to additional pre-need cemetery
sales.

Mortgage fee income increased by $2,102,000, or 32.5%, to $8,569,000 for the
three months ended June 30, 2001, from $6,467,000 for the comparable period in
2000. This increase was primarily attributable to a greater number of loan
originations during the second quarter of 2001, due to lower interest rates
resulting in more borrowers refinancing their mortgage loans.

Total benefits and expenses were $17,884,000, or 96.8%, of total revenues for
the three months ended June 30 2001, as compared to $15,065,000, or 98.7%, of
total revenues for the comparable period in 2000.

Death benefits, surrenders and other policy benefits, and increase in future
policy benefits increased by an aggregate of $150,000, or 5.1%, to $3,075,000
for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $2,925,000 for the comparable
period in 2000. This increase was primarily the result of an increase in
interest credited on policyholder account balances.

Amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs and cost of insurance acquired
decreased by $325,000 or 27.2, to $871,000, for the three months ended June 30,
2001, from $1,196,000 for the comparable period in 2000. This decrease was in
line with actuarial assumptions.

General and administrative expenses increased by $2,289,000 or 23.9%, to
$11,857,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $9,568,000 for the
comparable period in 2000. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in
commissions and other expenses due to additional mortgage loan originations
having been made by the Company's mortgage subsidiary during the second quarter
of 2001.

11
Interest  expense  increased  by $348,000,  or 62.0%,  to $909,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 2001, from $561,000 for the comparable period in 2000.
This increase was primarily due to additional warehouse lines of credit required
for the additional mortgage loan originations by the Company's mortgage
subsidiary.

Cost of mortuaries and cemeteries goods and services sold increased by $357,000,
or 43.9%, to $1,172,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2001, from $814,000
for the comparable period in 2000. This increase was primarily due to additional
pre-need cemetery sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's life insurance subsidiaries and cemetery and mortuary subsidiaries
realize cash flow from premiums, contract payments and sales on personal
services rendered for cemetery and mortuary business, from interest and
dividends on invested assets, and from the proceeds from the maturity of
held-to-maturity investments, or sale of other investments. The mortgage
subsidiary realizes cash flow from fees generated by originating and refinancing
mortgage loans and interest earned on mortgages sold to investors. The Company
considers these sources of cash flow to be adequate to fund future policyholder
and cemetery and mortuary liabilities, which generally are long-term, and
adequate to pay current policyholder claims, annuity payments, expenses on the
issuance of new policies, the maintenance of existing policies, debt service,
and operating expenses.

The Company attempts to match the duration of invested assets with its
policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities. The Company may sell
investments other than those held-to-maturity in the portfolio to help in this
timing; however, to date, that has not been necessary. The Company purchases
short-term investments on a temporary basis to meet the expectations of
short-term requirements of the Company's products. The Company's investment
philosophy is intended to provide a rate of return which will persist during the
expected duration of policyholder and cemetery and mortuary liabilities
regardless of future interest rate movements.

The Company's investment policy is to invest predominantly in fixed maturity
securities, mortgage loans, and warehouse mortgage loans on a short-term basis
before selling the loans to investors in accordance with the requirements and
laws governing the life insurance subsidiaries. Bonds owned by the life
insurance subsidiaries amounted to $54,528,000 as of June 30, 2001, compared to
$62,889,000 as of December 31, 2000. This represents 56% and 60% of the total
insurance-related investments as of June 30, 2001, and December 31, 2000,
respectively. Generally, all bonds owned by the life insurance subsidiaries are
rated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners. Under this rating
system, there are six categories used for rating bonds. At June 30, 2001, .75%
($408,000) and at December 31, 2000, .68% ($429,000) of the Company's total
investment in bonds were invested in bonds in rating categories three through
six, which are considered non-investment grade.

The Company has classified certain of its fixed income securities, including
high-yield securities, in its portfolio as available for sale, with the
remainder classified as held to maturity. However, in accordance with Company
policy, any such securities purchased in the future will be classified as held
to maturity. Business conditions, however, may develop in the future which may
indicate a need for a higher level of liquidity in the investment portfolio. In
that event the Company believes it could sell short-term investment grade
securities before liquidating higher-yielding longer term securities.

The Company is subject to risk based capital guidelines established by statutory
regulators requiring minimum capital levels based on the perceived risk of
assets, liabilities, disintermediation, and business risk. At June 30, 2001, and
December 31, 2000, the life insurance subsidiary exceeded the regulatory
criteria.

12
The Company's total  capitalization  of  stockholders'  equity and bank debt and
notes payable was $40,749,000 as of June 30, 2001, as compared to $40,787,000 as
of December 31, 2000. Stockholders' equity as a percent of capitalization
increased to 69% as of June 30, 2001, from 64% as of December 31, 2000.

Lapse rates measure the amount of insurance terminated during a particular
period. The Company's lapse rate for life insurance in 2000 was 15% as compared
to a rate of 10% for 1999. The 2001 lapse rate is approximately the same as
2000.

At June 30, 2001, $22,794,000 of the Company's consolidated stockholders' equity
represents the statutory stockholders' equity of the Company's life insurance
subsidiaries. The life insurance subsidiaries cannot pay a dividend to its
parent company without the approval of insurance regulatory authorities.
