✨ Community Spotlight ✨

The Heavener Masonic Lodge #154 is a highly esteemed group of gentlemen in our community, renowned for their exceptional kindness and generosity. They consistently exceed expectations in their efforts to assist those in need, actively participating in various fundraisers, benefits, and charitable events.

Furthermore, they provide invaluable support to education, as well as other aspects of student life. We recently had the privilege of attending a dinner honoring the recipients of the CASC scholars program, where numerous members of the Heavener Lodge, along with representatives from other local lodges, were in attendance. The lodge sponsors several scholars annually, making a profound contribution to the educational development of our youth.

This organization embodies a spirit of brotherhood, fostering a sense of family among its members, who not only look out for one another but also extend their support to the broader community whenever possible.

We are so grateful for the understanding of our community and the cancelling of our live events. But we've missed answering your questions, so thought we'd answer a common one we get a lot.

A funeral usually happens with the body present, often shortly after someone passes. It can include things like a viewing, a service at the funeral home or church, and burial.

A memorial service is similar, but the body isn’t present. It might take place later on—after cremation or burial—and it gives folks more time to plan or gather family.

Both are ways to honor a life and bring people together. There’s no right or wrong—it’s just about what fits best for your family. 💛

If you ever have questions, we’re always here to talk it through.

"Grief is in two parts. The first is loss. The second is the remaking of life." — Anne Roiphe

Grief changes everything.

First, there’s the loss. And then… there’s the hard work of learning how to live with it.

If you're in that second part right now—remaking, rebuilding, just trying to get through the day—we see you. And we’re with you.
