O'Brien Straatmann Funeral Homes & Cremations

At O'Brien-Straatmann Funeral Homes and Cremations, we do our best to deliver service beyond expectation. Whether you come to us when your loved one has died, or when you want to make your arrangements in advance, we provide you with services tailored to your needs and desires. Our staff members are people who care, friends and neighbors who are active in your community, ready to serve you and your family.

We strive with families to create the most personal, meaningful tribute to the
life that was lived and would like to make the journey of grief a little easier.

Meaningful tributes may include video tributes, photographs, memorabilia,
shared memories and activities that acknowledge the unique nature of the
person and what this person had meant to others. O'Brien-Straatmann offers internet televising for family and friends that can't make it to the memorial.

You may be visiting the website today to find helpful information for preplanning a burial or cremation for yourself or another family member or friend. If you would like to make plans for the future so your individual wishes are known and you and your family are protected, please fill out our Online Prearrangement Form.

When coping with death, most families find comfort in each other during a meal or reception. In order to permit families to benefit from the sharing of a meal and memories in the most convenient manner, O'Brien-Straatmann in Kearney has community rooms for funeral lunches.

We encourage you to visit our locations and meet our staff. Our professional staff are the most knowledgeable in our profession and care about each and every family we serve. We will offer expert advice and guidance and make sure that every detail is handled in a professional and very personal manner.

so that they may leave a condolence message that is given to the family.
