You Are Not Alone
At Serenity Oaks Memorial Park, we feel privileged to accompany you during this difficult period in your life. We enjoy getting to know our families as well as continuing relationships with them long after the burial. If pre-need arrangements have not already been made, we know that making these tough decisions at a very emotional time can be challenging. Therefore, we do everything we can to walk you through the process and help you make the best decisions that represent your wishes and budget.

Helping Yourself Heal
In the past, Serenity has hosted a healing art class to encourage families to engage in art as a way of coping with grief and loss. We hope to continue this program in the future.
​
In conjunction with St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, Serenity held a baby memorial to honor families who had experienced the loss of a child. We plan to continue to partner with St. John for this annual event.
