Pre-Planning

Why and How to Arrange a Funeral in Advance

When a death occurs, family members or friends are left to make all the difficult decisions of arranging a funeral, sometimes without warning.  Most have little idea of what is involved, what the costs are, and, most importantly, what final arrangements the deceased would have wanted.

When a loved one dies, the anxieties and stress of making funeral plans can be an overwhelming responsibility. In addition, the costs involved can leave a real financial burden on your surviving family members, especially when they are least prepared to deal with additional worries about money. That's why more and more people are thoughtfully planning funeral arrangements in advance.

Preplanning allows you to protect your family members or friends from the stress of difficult funeral decisions at a time of emotional upheaval. It also eliminates any guesswork about what kind of choices you might have preferred.

Advance funeral planning is a decision only you can make. Our prearranged funeral program allows you to plan ahead by making wise personal choices, in writing, knowing that your wishes will be carried out.

Affordable Prearrangements
Our Pre-Need counselors will work with you to arrange the best possible services and guarantees at today's prices.  Whether you are interested in a funeral plan funded by insurance, which may pay for your funeral in full, regardless of the amount paid into the policy or a more traditional trust funded plan, which has no health or age restrictions, our experienced counselors are here to work with you to find the perfect plan for you or your loved one.  Flexible payments plans are available for all plans without interest.  The funds paid into pre-arranged funeral plans are regarded as an exempt asset when applying for Medicaid, SSI Benefits, Federal bankruptcy or applying for Nursing Home Care. 

All plans are fully insured to the extent permitted by law by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)

Inflation protection
By purchasing your funeral in advance, you can lock in the cost of your funeral based on today's prices. With funeral costs rising an average 5% per year, it's a real benefit for your loved ones as well as sound financial planning.

Peace of mind
You'll be secure in knowing that you have spared your loved ones added stress, worry, anxiety and expense by prearranging your funeral.  Spare your family the emotional stress of making decisions during a difficult time.  A pre-need funeral arrangement records your exact wishes-consider it a final gift to those you love. 

A living decision
Like a living will, your prearranged funeral specifies your wishes in advance. Once you've decided, your loved ones will have a permanent record of your preferences for tomorrow.
