Since opening the new Callaway-Jones Funeral and Cremation Center, families have been asking if an existing pre-need policy for their funeral written elsewhere can be transferred to Callaway-Jones. The answer is yes, absolutely. Many individuals may not realize they have the option to transfer their existing pre-arrangements from one funeral home to another. This allows them to move their plans to a provider that better aligns with their needs and preferences, ensuring their wishes are honored without having to start the planning process from scratch. Knowing this option is available can offer peace of mind as circumstances change.
Bryan-College Station and the Brazos Valley are experiencing daily growth, with many of us bringing our beloved parents, aunts, uncles, and grandparents here to be closer to healthcare services. As is common for the previous generation, they often formalized their final wishes in their 50s and 60s to ensure their affairs were in order for the future. It’s important to note that funeral insurance policies are owned by the individual, not the funeral home that issued the policy. This means you can assign your policy to any service provider of your choice.
If cremation was your loved one’s choice, we offer our onsite Magnolia Cremation Suite for a private family gathering or viewing before the cremation process. Additionally, we have a wide selection of cremation urns available that will meet the preferences your loved one chose previously.
Existing policyholders simply need to change the assignee to Callaway-Jones, a process our office can facilitate in just a few minutes. Once this adjustment is made, we will honor all stipulations outlined in your policy. If a church funeral was originally requested at a church in their hometown, and you are now members of a local church here, we can assist you in contacting your church to check their availability for the service at a date and time of your choosing.

We offer a selection of caskets that closely match the specifications in your contract, including color, decoration, and other details. Additionally, if military honors are part of your senior's plan, all we require is their DD-214 form. We will handle all arrangements with the veterans group to ensure military honors are appropriately rendered during the service. Our commitment is to provide you with a seamless experience, ensuring that every detail aligns with your loved one's final wishes.
Please fill out the form below. If a death has recently occurred, contact us immediately, and we will accept the policy and adhere to it in its entirety, providing you with peace of mind. Our Advance Planning Specialists, Shelby Swoboda and Sarah Conway, are available for consultations. Feel free to call or visit our funeral center. We encourage discussions and questions about pre-planning, regardless of whether you're ready to make final decisions. The more you know about your options now, the more peace of mind you'll have and the time to reflect on what you truly want when your family and friends gather to remember you.
