WHO WANTS TO HOST A CREMATION PARTY?!

Yep… you read that right.

Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery & Crematory is looking for a couple to host one of our Cremation Parties right in their own home!

Here’s how it works:

🏠 You provide the house.
👫 You invite TWO other couples.
🍽️ WE provide catered dinner for all 6 of you!
🔥 I come to you and talk CREMATION!

No stuffy seminar. No uncomfortable sales presentation. Just dinner with friends, good conversation, and an opportunity to learn about the cremation packages we offer at Ozark Memorial Park.

I’ll answer your questions, explain exactly what preplanning looks like, what’s included in our cremation package, and why so many families are choosing to have these decisions made ahead of time.

✨ AND HERE’S THE FUN PART…

Anyone who decides to preplan their cremation with me that evening will receive a special Cremation Party discount!

You’re already going to have dinner with your friends…
you might as well let Ozark buy dinner and get one of those conversations out of the way that we ALL eventually need to have. ❤️

We’re looking for our FIRST HOST COUPLE!

Interested in hosting? Comment below or send me a private message!

Only 3 couples. One catered dinner. And a conversation that could make things much easier for your family someday.
