Pre-Planning a Funeral:

Planning ahead for yourself, a friend, or a loved one is not as cumbersome as some may believe. Your Funeral Director will guide you through the many options available to determine a service that fits your needs and is right for you and your family. It is as simple as making an appointment with your Funeral Director (takes about an hour to complete).

From there, your wishes and your biographical information is written in a person-permanent record and the cost of services you selected is determined at that time. Your payment is placed into a third party irrevocable trust, where it remains until the time of need. Your arrangements and trust is guaranteed and transferable if you decide to relocate. 

The advantages of pre-planning a funeral and pre-paying your funeral arrangements is that you or your family will never have to pay any additional expenses for what you have selected; and your wishes will be followed by your Funeral Director just as your requested. A worksheet is presented at the time of consultation to help you gather information you will need when making your arrangements with your funeral director.
