03 – What to Expect From Morgan Oaks

When you meet with a member of Morgan Oaks Eternal Preserve to discuss your arrangements, we’ll tour the property and go over all the options available to you and your loved one.
We’ll then ask you about your loved one to gain an understanding of the person the services will honor. Use this time to communicate your ideas and preferences, share your loved one’s life story, revisit memories, and highlight their accomplishments. Our professionals will use this information to guide you in the creation of a personalized, meaningful celebration of your loved one’s life.
This process may include:

  • Preparing and filing the official death certificate
  • Scheduling the services and events (including the location, date, and time)
  • Selecting an urn or other products you may need
  • Drafting an obituary
  • Arranging necessary transportation

We’d like to make this process as smooth and stress-free for you as we can, so remember to bring the following information about your loved one with you as well:

  • Full legal name and home address
  • Social security number
  • Date of birth
  • Place of birth
  • Father’s name
  • Mother’s maiden name
