Ozark Memorial Park- Cemetery & Crematory

Yesterday was a great day starting off Donations for the Solace House of the Ozarks!
I know our community can pull this off🤍

Your dollar is comforting a family while they wait for the unimaginable.

Alyssa’s grandmother passed away at the Solace House. Here is what she has to say about it.

“The Solace House holds a very special place in my heart, and this fundraiser means so much more to me than simply raising money. ❤️

My grandma was my grandpa’s main caretaker. As time went on, it reached a point where she could no longer care for him or herself the way she always had. During the last few days of her life, we moved her to the Solace House, and I will forever be thankful for what they did for her and for our family.

They gave my grandma a clean, peaceful, comfortable place to spend her final days. They provided 24/7 care, made sure our family had food, and gave us a safe place where we could simply be together, sit with her, love her, and wait without having to worry about everything else going on around us.

Then I learned that the people caring for these families are volunteers, and somehow that made what they do feel even more incredible.

That experience is when I truly realized just how special the Solace House is.

When a family is already facing one of the hardest moments of their lives, Solace House gives them something incredibly valuable: a place where their loved one can be comfortable and cared for, and where the family can focus on what matters most, being together.

I’ve personally seen what this place can mean to a family because they were there for mine.

That is why raising money for the Solace House means so much to me. Every donation helps them continue opening their doors and providing that same love, comfort, and care to another family when they need it most. ❤️

I will forever be grateful that my grandma had the Solace House during her final days” - Alyssa

⭐️ REVIEW SPOTLIGHT ⭐️

Kind words like these mean so much to our team. 🤍

When a family chooses Ozark Memorial Park, they are placing an incredible amount of trust in us and that is something we never take for granted.

💬 “After our dog Coco passed away, we wanted to find a place where we could lay her to rest. We found Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery & Crematory, and we are very grateful for the care they provided.

Everyone treated us with kindness, respect, and compassion during a difficult time. They made the process as easy as possible and gave Coco a peaceful final resting place.

We truly appreciate everything they did for us and would highly recommend Ozark Memorial Park to anyone looking for caring and professional service” -Ken

We are grateful for every family who allows us to serve them, and especially thankful when they take the time to share their experience with others.

Thank you for trusting Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery & Crematory to care for your family. 🤍
