Give Your Loved Ones A True Gift: Pre‐Plan Your Funeral or Cremation Arrangements Today

Speaking to spouse or family about your funeral or cremation arrangements can be a difficult conversation to have. However, we have found that those who don’t take the time to give consideration to their final arrangements end up causing far more difficulty for their loved ones when a death does occur. 

Grief, guilt, and confusion, are only some of the strong emotions and reactions we experience when a loved one dies. And imagine having to answer almost 200 questions that a funeral director needs to know at a time like that. Imagine never being able to answer with certainty two questions
which can plague one with guilt: “Is that what they would have wanted?” and “Did I do the right thing?” Imagine having to deal with the financial burden of paying in full for funeral or cremation arrangements. Many have to borrow or liquidate savings or investments. Surely this is not what we would want our loved ones to experience in the event of a death.

Fortunately, there is a better way. Taking the three simple steps today will save your loved ones from having to take three very difficult steps tomorrow.
  1. Gather important documents and consolidate your information – Make sure that all of your information is in one place, easily accessible. This will avoid your loved one from having to search around to locate information that they may need both immediately and later on.
  2. Discuss and plan your funeral or cremation arrangements – Ensure that your loved ones understand what your wished are, what kind of legacy you want to leave, and how you want to be remembered. This will provide tremendous peace of mind and protect your survivors from stress, uncertainty, and emotional overspending.
  3. Support your arrangements financially – Protect yourself and your loved ones from inflation.
Traditionally, funeral arrangements have doubled in cost every ten years. When you pre‐plan, you lock in at today’s prices, never having to pay more as time goes on and avoiding the scenario where loved ones are faced with a large bill at the time of need. Flexible low monthly payments are insured so that, should your death occur while you are making payments, the remainder of the cost is covered.
