Cemetery Service

We offer delivery service to all Crawford County cemeteries

Funeral Service

We specialize in creating excellent funeral flowers at affordable costs. From casket pieces to cremation memorial arrangements, The Rocking Horse works diligently to design floral tributes that honor the lives of your loved ones. Sometimes we are even asked to incorporate special items into the arrangements that add that special touch. 

We offer delivery service to all Crawford County cemeteries. If you are unable to put flowers on a loved one’s grave during those important times of the year –Easter, Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, Father’s Day, Christmas, or even the anniversary of your loved one’s death, we can do that for you. 

We make cemetery arrangements that can stay on the grave for several months at a time. We take pictures of their placement and send them to you for verification. You can even ask us to do a rotation of seasons, such as changing the flowers out twice a year – spring/summer (after cemetery clean-up) and fall-winter(near the end of September). Or we can do 4 times a year – spring (after cemetery clean-up), summer (around 4th of July), fall (near the end of September) and winter (around the 3rd week of December). 

What do you need to know to place an order with us?


Please make sure you have all the correct information of the recipient, including address and current phone number. We do not deliver without making sure someone is home. Going out by chance will cost you in extra delivery fees. And we absolutely will not leave something on a porch or table outside without speaking to the recipient first. 

We accept the four major credit/debit cards – Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express. If you wish to transfer your payment through Zelle, we can do that too, but it has to be done and confirmed before the order can be completed. We will also need your correct billing address and current phone number.

If you would like to place an order with us, please call the store at 618-586-2444 and we will be happy to assist

Delivery Service


The Rocking Horse delivers Monday – Saturday. Deliveries made on Sundays are only for funerals when necessary. Our delivery service includes all of Crawford County. We do and can deliver farther for an appropriate fee. We have set fees for everyday in town deliveries within Palestine and to Flat Rock, Hutsonville, Robinson and Oblong. Rural Route fees are based on mileage zones that we have created.

We service Goodwine Funeral Homes of Palestine, Flat Rock, Robinson and West Union and Pulliam Funeral Homes of Hutsonville, Oblong and Robinson. Fees for funeral homes are slightly less than everyday fees, but still necessary to cover the cost of labor, gas and car expenses.  Deliveries made to funeral homes outside of Crawford County would incur an appropriate fee for the mileage.
