Heritage Enterprises Careers in Indianapolis, IN

The Heritage story began in 1960 when Bill Froelich visited his sister, Helen, in Washington, D.C.  Helen, an official in the Federal Housing Administration, told Bill about a new program that the FHA was starting. The program was to stimulate construction of new nursing homes that would replace older homes that were serving this need at the time. Bill, who was a successful operator of a number of funeral homes and an ambulance company in Central Illinois, saw the need and opportunity for this service. Froelich took this idea and joined with banker Craig Hart, insurance man and brother-in-law Tom Jefferson, and prominent local doctor Herman Wellmerling to form Heritage Enterprises.
