Losing a loved one is always difficult and emotional.
At this stressful time, family members are suddenly
forced to make many important decisions alone. Many
have found that setting aside final expenses ahead
of time, gives them comfort in knowing that their
families will have less emotional stress while grieving
their loss. Pre-planning allows you to confer with
your loved ones and make your plans together, thus
resolving your most personal matters with a clear
mind, in a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere.
Since 1960, the number of pre-planned funerals has
increased by 1000%. Why such a dramatic increase in
Pre-Planned Funerals?
Because pre-planning assures that:
- Your wishes will be fulfilled.
- You may spare your loved ones any unnecessary
emotional or financial burden.
Final cost estimates provide peace of mind because
they allow the family to avoid facing many unanswered
questions at a difficult time. For example, consider:
- How much money will you receive from Social Security?
- Will family members know where to find insurance
papers and will they understand the benefits they
are entitled to receive?
- If funeral preferences are not documented in advance,
who is legally responsible to make them for you?
- What Veteran's Benefits will your family receive?
- Should you choose an insurance, trust, or product/service
arrangement?
For further information, please contact the funeral home. We can provide
you with a Planning Guide and assist you with these
important decisions that will ultimately affect those
you love.
