Grief Support
What you need to know for a Funeral Arrangement Conference
When you visit Cedar Oak Memorial Park, one of our experienced funeral directors will guide you through the entire arrangement process and assist you in creating a memorable celebration of your loved one’s life. The arrangement process will include preparing and filing the death certificate and other government documents; scheduling the location, date, and time of services or other events; selecting a casket, urn, or other items; preparing an obituary; and coordinating services with other providers, including the cemetery. Necessary authorizations will need to be signed by the appropriate next of kin.
Feel free to bring any photos, music, or memorabilia so that you and your director can discuss how you would like your loved one to be remembered. More and more people today choose to personalize the funeral services. A favorite song or gathering place, even a favorite activity, can all become part of their service.
Our directors will listen and assist you in planning a loving tribute that captures the spirit of the person whose life you wish to honor.
Veterans
They Honored Their Country
A United States flag is provided, at no cost, to drape the casket or accompany the urn of a deceased veteran who served honorably in the U. S. Armed Forces. It is furnished to honor the memory of a veteran’s military service to his or her country. The VA will furnish a burial flag for memorialization for:
- A veteran who served during wartime
- A veteran who died on active duty after May 27, 1941
- A veteran who served after January 31, 1955
- A peacetime veteran who was discharged or released before June 27, 1950
