We
plan for every aspect of life. Having a family,
vacations, weddings, retirement-all are planned. We
prepare for what might happen such as fires,
accidents and floods. But, because most of us do not
like to think about death - we avoid making
important funeral decisions in advance.
All
of the ceremony, burial, or cremation arrangements
can be made at one time in one of our locations or
in the comfort of your own home.
Why
should you preplan?
Life
is more complicated now than ever! Family members
live in different parts of the country, dealing with
government agencies can be frustrating, and
inflation is felt by every household. Planning ahead
prevents emotional overspending and protects your
family's interests. Four reasons to plan ahead:
Your
Family
-
Making decisions today with the help of those close
to you lets you make logical, well thought out plans
which your family will appreciate.
Lower
Costs
- Waiting to make arrangements will cost your family
more money. Payment in full must be made at the time
of death when you can least afford to deplete your
assets. Everyone can afford to make pre-need
arrangements. It is a matter of choosing a payment
plan that is right for you.
Securing
Benefits
- Millions of dollars in governmental death benefits
go unclaimed each year. It is important for you to
be aware of how to protect your potential benefits
from Social Security, Veterans' Administration, or
Medicaid. We can answer your questions and assist
you in filing for these benefits.
Peace
of Mind
- Arranging today, before the death, is handling a
family matter. Arranging at the time of death is
dealing with a family crisis. Planning ahead…you
have true peace of mind knowing you have taken care
of everything.
