The main telephone number above is published by MK Dixon Funeral Home. Do not assume the two locations have separate phone numbers unless the funeral home confirms them.

Prepare an Obituary Name Search

This guide does not run the funeral home’s obituary database. This field is for preparing the name only. Typing here will not retrieve results or transmit the name to MK Dixon Funeral Home.

What to do after opening: use the obituary directory’s search or browsing tools, open the matching “Visit Obituary” entry, and verify the complete memorial. If the full name does not work, search just the surname or try a maiden name, nickname, suffix-free name or alternate spelling.

How to Find an MK Dixon Funeral Home Obituary

Open MK Dixon’s official obituary archive

Go to the official MK Dixon obituary directory, not an obituary aggregator. The directory includes individual obituary entries and older pages of listings.

Enter the person’s full name

Start with first and last name. If available, use search controls rather than scrolling through unrelated entries.

Try alternative names

Search the surname only, maiden or married surname, middle initial, nickname, name without a suffix, or a possible spelling variation.

Open the complete obituary

Select the individual memorial. Directory previews may omit important information that appears lower on the person’s obituary page.

Verify the person’s identity

Compare the details actually shown, such as life dates, Baldwin or Jeanerette connections, family information and other relevant identifiers.

Check each event separately

Look for visitation, celebration of life, funeral service, church venue, interment, burial, cemetery and additional event details.

Read family instructions

Review flower or memorial-tree options, guestbook facilities and any donation or attendance instructions the family has made public.

Recheck before traveling

Open the official memorial again before the event. Confirm the address, date, time and any corrections.

Call when information is unclear

Contact MK Dixon Funeral Home at (337) 940-9253 to clarify a service venue, pending arrangement or missing obituary.

What an MK Dixon Memorial May Include

Individual memorial pages on MK Dixon’s website may contain several types of information. The exact content depends on what has been published for that person.

Life remembranceA family-approved obituary and biographical information.
VisitationViewing location and visiting hours, when announced.
Celebration of lifeService time, venue, officiant or related instructions when published.
Burial or intermentCemetery or final resting-place information when publicly included.
GuestbookOptions to leave memories, condolences or tributes.
Flowers and memorialsFlower-store or memorial-tree links and family requests when available.
Useful local detail: the official MK Dixon archive contains memorials involving Baldwin, Jeanerette, Franklin, Patterson and other South Louisiana communities. Some services take place at churches rather than either funeral-home building. Do not select a destination from the funeral home’s business address alone.

For another official-archive lookup approach serving families in nearby Iberia Parish communities, see our Pellerin Funeral Home obituary and location guide. Pellerin is a separate funeral provider, so use its archive only when that is the funeral home named in the notice.

Service-Day Verification Checklist

Event Check before attending Important caution
Visitation Date, beginning and ending time, church or funeral-home name. Viewing and funeral service may have different schedules.
Funeral / celebration of life Service start time, venue name, complete address and public or private instructions. Do not assume the funeral is at the Baldwin office.
Burial or interment Cemetery name, community, entrance and any procession information. Cemetery directions are separate from funeral-home directions.
Livestream / guestbook Whether a genuine official viewing link or online memorial option exists. Do not assume a livestream is offered for every service.
Watch for conflicting addresses: an individual memorial may contain both the funeral home’s contact address and a different event venue. Where a memorial’s event map and written directions disagree, call MK Dixon before traveling.

For another Louisiana example of checking a church, funeral-home chapel and cemetery independently, our Syrie Funeral Home service-check guide explains the same verification task for a different provider in Lafayette.

MK Dixon Funeral Home Locations & Maps

MK Dixon’s official website identifies the following two locations and publishes the telephone number (337) 940-9253. Use the obituary’s event address for a particular visitation or service.

MK Dixon Funeral Home — Baldwin

211 Main Street
Baldwin, LA 70514
St. Mary Parish

Call (337) 940-9253

This map is for the funeral home location, not necessarily every service venue.

Before using directions: compare the building address with the full obituary’s service schedule. If the memorial names a church, cemetery or other venue, map that address instead. For accessibility or parking questions, contact the funeral home.

Funeral Arrangements and Current Prices

MK Dixon’s website includes information about funeral services, planning ahead and immediate-need arrangements. This guide does not provide unverified current prices or quote estimates from third-party platforms.

What to ask the funeral director

  • May I receive or review the current General Price List?
  • What is included in the services under consideration?
  • Are visitation, transportation, burial or cremation charges separate?
  • Are the cemetery, clergy, flowers, obituary publication or outside-provider costs additional?
  • Which services are optional, and which are required?
  • Can the family receive an itemized statement for the arrangements being selected?

The FTC Funeral Rule consumer guide explains relevant funeral-price rights.

After opening the FTC guide: review the rules on choosing funeral goods and services and obtaining price information. Then call MK Dixon with the specific arrangements you need to compare.

The official immediate-need page contains a family information form. Because it can request sensitive personal information, including information about the deceased, use it only after confirming you are on the genuine MK Dixon website. Do not enter sensitive information into this independent guide.

Louisiana Death Certificates After an MK Dixon Obituary

An online obituary is not a certified death certificate. For deaths registered in Louisiana, the Louisiana Department of Health provides official instructions for obtaining certified records.

Louisiana is a closed-record state. Access to recent certified death records is generally limited to eligible family members and others who meet the state’s legal requirements.

Who may qualify? The state’s eligibility rules include certain close relatives and legally authorized requesters. Additional documentation can be required for some categories.
What to prepare Required photo identification, application information, the appropriate fee and proof of eligibility when applicable.
How to order Follow current state instructions for in-person, mail, participating Clerk of Court or authorized vendor options.
After opening Louisiana’s instructions: check requester eligibility first, confirm the death was registered in Louisiana, review identification and documentation requirements, then choose an approved ordering method. Verify current fees before payment.

Louisiana’s instructions also describe a participating Clerk of Court route for eligible certificates for deaths occurring on or after July 7, 2012. Availability and extra service fees should be confirmed before visiting an office.

Louisiana Succession and Estate Questions

Funeral arrangements and estate administration are different legal processes. In Louisiana, estate administration is commonly referred to as a succession.

The proper court and required process depend on the deceased person’s domicile, property, testament and other estate circumstances. A family should not assume that the appropriate parish is St. Mary or Iberia simply because MK Dixon handled the funeral.

Small-succession rules

Louisiana Code of Civil Procedure Article 3421 defines small successions and includes value limits and other qualifying situations. Article 3431 explains circumstances in which opening a small succession judicially is unnecessary.

Do not assume the simplified affidavit procedure applies merely because an estate is relatively small. Wills, ownership of immovable property, domicile, heirs and other conditions can change the correct process.

After opening the Louisiana statutes: read the current definitions and exceptions, determine the estate’s correct jurisdiction, and consult the appropriate parish court or qualified Louisiana succession attorney before preparing or filing legal paperwork.

For another Louisiana after-death guide that explains why certified records and succession tasks must be handled separately from obituary searching, see the Kilpatrick Funeral Home obituary and estate-task guide. Kilpatrick is a separate provider serving another region of Louisiana.

Veteran Burial Benefits and Social Security

VA Burial and Memorial Benefits

Families of eligible Veterans may need information on burial allowances, cemetery eligibility, headstones or markers, burial flags and other memorial benefits.

Official U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs burial resources

After opening: choose the specific burial or memorial benefit, check eligibility and supporting documents, then use the VA’s official application instructions.

Social Security After a Death

The Social Security Administration explains death reporting and potential survivor benefits for eligible family members. Funeral homes generally report deaths, but families should confirm reporting when uncertain.

SSA: What to Do When Someone Dies

After opening: review reporting guidance and then check whether a spouse, child or other qualifying person may need to apply for benefits.

Third-Party Obituary Listings: What to Trust

Search engines, newspaper websites and third-party memorial aggregators can help you discover an obituary. However, a copied notice may not include the latest corrections or full service schedule.

Use as a clue A third-party listing may help establish which funeral home is involved.
Verify at the source Return to the person’s memorial on mkdixonfh.com for published service details.
Confirm changes Call the funeral home if a service date, event address or family request is unclear.

When sharing an obituary, prefer the official individual memorial link rather than copying the complete notice. That gives relatives a direct route to view any later updates.
