Charting the Trail: Honoring Tradition, Exploring Innovation

The Oklahoma Funeral Directors Association is excited to invite you to join us for our 123rd Annual Convention and Expo, taking place April 26-28, 2026, at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, Tulsa, OK This year, we’re gathering like-minded professionals at basecamp for a few days of connection, discovery, and forward momentum.

Your company has long been a trusted partner in the funeral service profession, consistently providing tools, services, and innovations that help funeral directors across Oklahoma navigate an ever-changing landscape. We are grateful for your continued commitment to strengthening our profession.

The OKFDA Annual Convention and Expo offers an ideal setting to set up camp and showcase your latest advancements, share ideas around the fire, and connect with industry professionals from across the state. From exploring new technologies to forging strong partnerships, this event serves as a well-traveled trail for growth, collaboration, and shared success.

This year’s convention promises to be a milestone moment as we welcome professionals and industry leaders together and proudly install our President-Elect, John Decker of Helena, Oklahoma. Our outdoor-inspired theme, Charting the Trail: Honoring Tradition, Exploring Innovation, celebrates the balance between time-honored practices and bold new paths forward. We encourage exhibitors to decorate their booths with a rustic, outdoor, or lodge-style flair that brings the theme to life.

To kick things off, John will host an Opening Night Campfire Social, featuring a cornhole tournament, live DJ, and hearty hors d'oeuvres — a relaxed and lively way to unwind, network, and enjoy time with fellow attendees after a full day on the trail.

Beyond the exhibit hall, we encourage you to take advantage of the many opportunities to connect with fellow exhibitors and funeral directors throughout the convention. Whether swapping stories, sharing successes, or building new relationships, the OKFDA Convention provides the perfect setting to strengthen your presence within Oklahoma’s funeral service community.

Thank you for being an essential part of the 123^rd Annual Convention and Expo. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to a rewarding and successful partnership. Once registered, you will receive a confirmation email with details and access to the hotel room block.

We’ll see you on the trail this April.

Sincerely, 

Dustin B. Pierce
Executive Director
