We’re so proud of our very own, Rodney.

Last night, he was gifted a helmet at the Muskogee Roughers Football Banquet by Coach Dale Condict and the Roughers.

The gift was for volunteering and supporting the team.

Rodney, we are proud of you!

Thank you for trusting us. Your thoughtfulness will stay with us.

Why Pre-Planning Matters

We asked our Preneed Coordinator, Todd, to share his thoughts on pre-planning—and why it’s one of the most meaningful gifts you can give your family.

“It’s not always easy to think about, but having your funeral arrangements in place ahead of time brings real peace of mind for you and the people you love.”

Here are a few reasons Todd believes pre-planning makes such a difference:

It eases emotional and financial stress on your family.

It ensures your wishes are clearly outlined and honored.

It helps prevent confusion or disagreements during an already difficult time.

It locks in today’s prices and protects against future inflation.

It gives families more space to focus on healing and remembering.

It allows cultural or religious customs to be fully honored.

It creates the opportunity for a more personal and meaningful service.

When you pre-plan, Todd will sit down with you, walk through every option, and help you make thoughtful decisions at your own pace.

If this has been on your mind, we’re here whenever you're ready.

Grief has a way of showing up right when we least expect it—and this quote sums it up so well. 💛

“Grief is love’s reminder that we once held something worth cherishing.”

It’s okay to miss them. It’s okay to feel the weight of it. And it’s also okay to smile at the memories that still mean so much.

Wherever you are in your journey, just know you’re not walking it alone.

Grab the tissues for this one, friends. 💛

In today’s video, Gordon shares one of his favorite memories from a service—and after 30 years of wearing a white shirt and suit to every single one, this moment was special enough to break his own rule. That’s how you know it meant something.

It’s a story full of heart, love, and the kind of connection that reminds us why we do what we do.
Can’t wait for you to hear it.
