Why Plan Ahead?
There’s a lot that goes into planning a funeral. Making those arrangements beforehand gives you time to consider all of your options and ensures that you’re covering all of the necessary details. Pre-planning also helps reduce the number of decisions your family must make following your passing.
We strongly encourage pre-planning, no matter what your age is. Here’s why:
It's easy. Fill out a form or meet with a member of our staff to put your plan in place. Anyone can create a plan, at any stage in their life, and you always can make changes if you wish.
It gives you control. Pre-planning lets you decide what happens to your body after you die and allows you to create your own unique life celebration. Including your family in the planning process can help them feel connected to you both in life and in death, knowing that your arrangements reflect your desires.
It’s a gift to your family. Pre-planning reduces the number of decisions your family will have to make following your death, giving them more time and energy to focus on healing and remembrance.
You can pre-pay if you wish. Pre-payment means that your funds will be set aside and protected against inflation and unforeseen increases in cost. Your family won’t have to worry about financial strain and can enjoy peace of mind knowing that everything has been taken care of. We’d be happy to provide you with more information and help you arrange for pre-funding of your services.
What if I move?
We keep a record of your pre-planned arrangements, and it’s easily transferable to any funeral home in the United States.
