Available Services for Funeral Home and Cremations in Choctaw, OK

 

What are your options when choosing a funeral or cremation package? Here at Asa Smith Funeral Service, we provide everything you need in one convenient location. These are some of the standard services families choose:

 

  • Funeral Service: Coordinating a funeral service is a perfect way to allow family and friends to say their goodbyes and share the experience together. A funeral service is often held in a church or funeral home, with a program to highlight the person’s life. For example, you might have speakers, music, and other presentations to show pictures and videos. Often, funeral services take place before the loved one is buried in a cemetery.
  • Cremation Service: Another possibility is to schedule cremation. Some families don’t feel like cemetery burial is a good fit, so they choose cremation instead. This service is a fraction of the cost compared to traditional burial. Plus, you have the flexibility to select the ideal resting place since you aren’t limited to a cemetery.
  • Celebration of Life: If a traditional funeral isn’t your style, consider planning a celebration of life instead. This event has an upbeat feel, with activities and music that celebrate the many things the person accomplished in their lifetime. The goal is to enjoy the experience without creating a heavy, mournful event.

 

These services are just a general overview of what you can choose when designing a plan for your loved one. You have the flexibility to choose many other details that make it a truly personalized event. Our team at Asa Smith Funeral Service is here to answer your questions and help you learn more about the options so you can design the ideal gathering for friends and family.

 

Two Categories for Funeral Planning

 

If you feel overwhelmed about funeral planning, it can help to break things down into simpler steps. You don’t have to make all the decisions at one time. Instead, take it piece by piece until you finalize the right plan.

 

We help families with these decisions by coordinating funeral home and cremations in Choctaw, OK, in two phases: how you want to honor your loved one and the way you prefer to care for their physical remains.

 

  • Honoring a Loved One: When designing the service, you can choose a traditional, formal, unique, or offbeat style for the event. This gathering is a time when family and friends meet together to offer each other support in their healing. You decide the setting and location, such as an outdoor area or chapel, and we work hard to incorporate your personalized and specific requests.
  • Caring for the Physical Remains: In addition to the gathering of friends and family, you also need to decide how to care for your loved one’s remains. This might be an emotional or difficult choice for your family. First, choose between burial and cremation. Then, we will help with the decisions relating to the specific service that you prefer. For example, burial can happen in a mausoleum or the ground. Or cremation allows you to choose scattering, entombment, or burial.

 

When you choose Asa Smith Funeral Service, have confidence knowing that our staff is experienced in accommodating the traditions and requests for people from all lifestyles, faiths, beliefs, and relationships.
