Headstones in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma | Monuments

Oklahoma City's cemeteries serve long-established families, many Native American nations and a large Vietnamese community. Veterans may be buried at Fort Sill National Cemetery in Elgin.

Storms and hail

Oklahoma's tornado season, hail and wind make proper setting essential. Granite is very tough, but avoid fragile attached ornaments, and make sure the monument is pinned or set to the cemetery's specification.

Native American families

Many Oklahomans are citizens of tribal nations, some of which maintain their own cemeteries and customs. Follow the family's and nation's guidance; tribal languages can be engraved when checked by a fluent speaker.

Vietnamese families

Vietnamese families often include photos, Vietnamese text and Buddhist or Catholic symbols. See Vietnamese traditions.

Cemetery rules

In the United States, cemeteries are regulated state by state, and every cemetery — municipal, religious, nonprofit or private — sets its own rules on memorial sizes, materials, foundations and installation. Before you order:

Ask the cemetery for its rules and fee schedule in writing (foundation, setting and any permit fees).
Confirm who installs — cemetery staff or an approved monument company.
Submit the design for approval before production.

Our cemetery headstone rules guide has a full checklist, and headstone setting fees explained covers the extra costs.

Veterans

Eligible veterans can receive a government headstone, marker or medallion, and families can also choose a private granite monument that includes service details. See veteran headstones and VA rules, the VA medallion and military inscriptions.
