There are so many benefits to planning for funeral wishes in advance, but here are the top three:

1. Create a road map for your wishes: Your family may have different ideas on the best way to honor your life. By planning ahead, you can help prevent disagreements by sharing how you want your end-of-life wishes carried out.

2. Give everyone peace: Knowing that your wishes are understood and that your funeral will be arranged according to your specifications can provide comfort and security. For your family, it can also reduce the stress and anxiety they may feel when making funeral arrangements.

3. Take advantage of flexible payment options: You can choose to pay for your funeral in advance or set up a payment plan to spread the cost out over time. By taking care of the cost ahead of time, you can alleviate some of the financial burden that may fall on your loved ones when arranging a funeral.

Book a meeting with our Preplanning Specialist to get started!

You'll need basic information about yourself or the person you are planning for, such as date of birth, marital status, parents' full names, discharge papers for veterans, etc. Besides biological information, you'll also need to choose service details (burial or cremation, what type of service you'd like, what cemetery to use), but our caring staff will walk your through the process.

Pre-paying is not required, but it is something to thoughtfully consider. By taking care of the financial aspects of a funeral plan now, you remove a future financial burden from your survivors and give everyone - including yourself - peace of mind. 

Yes, your funeral prearrangement plan is portable. If you have plans at another funeral home and would like to move them here, we will help you do that. If you move away from the area and would like to transfer your arrangements to another funeral home, we will assist you with that as well.
