Cox Funeral Home Obituaries: Official Louisiana Search Guide
If you searched for Cox Funeral Home obituaries, start with the official Cox Funeral Homes obituary archive for Louisiana. The official archive is used for Cox Funeral Homes locations in Bastrop, Oak Grove, Lake Providence and Delhi.
Open the full memorial page before attending a service, sending flowers, sharing a time, or using the notice for family paperwork. Search previews and third-party pages can miss separate visitation, chapel, cemetery, livestream, flower, donation or family-instruction details.
Source review: October 10, 2026. Reopen the official obituary before travel because service details can change.
Verified Details First
How to Find a Cox Funeral Home Obituary
- Open the official obituary archive. Use Cox Funeral Homes’ official obituary listings, not a copied obituary page.
- Search the published name. Try the full name first, then surname only, maiden name, nickname, middle initial or spelling variation.
- Open the full memorial. Read the person’s complete obituary page before relying on dates or service details.
- Confirm the location. Look for Bastrop, Oak Grove, Lake Providence, Delhi, a church, cemetery or another venue.
- Check every event block. Visitation, funeral, graveside, burial, livestream and reception details may be separate.
- Review family instructions. The memorial may mention flowers, donations, a church, a cemetery, or a family fund.
- Recheck before travel. Open the live official page again shortly before leaving.
Cox Funeral Homes Locations to Check
The official Cox Funeral Homes site and indexed location snippets identify multiple Louisiana chapels. Use the chapel named in the individual obituary, because a service may be held at a different chapel, church or cemetery.
| Location | Address | Phone | Best use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bastrop Chapel | 611 N. Washington Street, Bastrop, LA 71220 | (318) 283-3100 | Use when the obituary or service block names Bastrop. |
| Oak Grove Chapel | 200 E. Noble Street, Oak Grove, LA 71263 | (318) 428-3263 | Use when the memorial names Oak Grove or West Carroll Parish. |
| Lake Providence | 210 N. Hood Street, Lake Providence, LA 71254 | (318) 559-2986 | Use when the memorial names Lake Providence or East Carroll Parish. |
| Delhi Chapel | 724 Broadway Street, Delhi, LA 71232 | (318) 878-3637 | Use when the memorial names Delhi or Richland Parish. |
Service-Day Checks Before You Drive
A Cox obituary can involve one chapel for visitation, another location for the service, and a cemetery for interment. Treat each event line as its own destination.
| Event | What to verify | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Visitation | Date, start/end time, chapel or church name, and public/private note. | Visitation may be separate from the funeral service. |
| Funeral or memorial service | Venue, exact address, officiant note, and whether the service is public. | The service may not be at the same chapel where arrangements were handled. |
| Graveside or interment | Cemetery name, procession instructions, and family privacy note. | Cemetery directions can differ from chapel directions. |
| Flowers or donations | Use only the flower store or memorial instructions on the official obituary. | Older third-party pages can show stale links or incomplete family requests. |

Current Prices, Immediate Need and Planning Questions
This guide does not quote funeral prices because current costs must be confirmed directly with the funeral home. Ask the correct chapel for current itemized pricing and separate funeral-home charges from cemetery, clergy, newspaper, flowers, certified copies and other outside costs.
- Identify the correct Cox location. Use the chapel named on the official obituary or contact page.
- Call the chapel directly. Explain whether the need is immediate, preplanning, cremation, burial, memorial service or a celebration of life.
- Ask for current itemized prices. Request the current General Price List or itemized details for the exact services being considered.
- Check the obituary before ordering flowers. The family may request a charity, church, cemetery fund or other memorial instead.
- Read the FTC Funeral Rule. It explains federal funeral price-disclosure rights.
Louisiana Death Certificates and Older Death Records
An obituary is not a certified death certificate. For a recent death that occurred in Louisiana, use the Louisiana Department of Health vital-record route. For Louisiana deaths more than 50 years old, the Louisiana Secretary of State Archives provides historical death-record index resources.
- Confirm where the death occurred. Louisiana records apply to deaths that occurred in Louisiana.
- Ask the funeral director whether certificates were ordered. Families often request certified copies during arrangements.
- Use LDH for recent certified copies. Open the Louisiana Department of Health vital-record page and follow current instructions.
- Use the State Archives for older records. For deaths older than 50 years, search the Louisiana historical death-record resources.
Estate and Succession Questions
Funeral arrangements and Louisiana succession or estate paperwork are separate tasks. The correct court or legal route usually depends on the deceased person’s domicile, property and family situation, not only the funeral-home chapel.
Veteran Families: Check Benefits Early
If the person was a Veteran, tell the funeral director early and gather discharge paperwork if available. Federal VA burial and memorial benefits may apply only when eligibility rules are met.
