Why Should I Preplan?

Preplanning a funeral or end of life services allows individuals to make important decisions in advance, ensuring their wishes are known and easing the emotional and financial burden on loved ones during a difficult time. By planning ahead, you can choose the type of service you prefer, select burial or cremation, and even take care of payment options, all in a thoughtful and stress free environment.

Preplanning provides peace of mind, knowing everything is arranged according to your values, beliefs, and budget. It is a meaningful way to take care of your family and leave behind a legacy of care and consideration.

Funeral preplanning means making important decisions now about how you’d like your final arrangements to be handled later. It’s a thoughtful way to ensure your wishes are known, your loved ones are protected, and everything is taken care of in advance.

Preplanning typically includes:

Choosing burial or cremation
Selecting a funeral home or service location
Outlining your wishes for the ceremony
Pre-funding your arrangements, if you choose
Documenting vital information for your obituary and legal paperwork

Pre-funding your arrangements can offer powerful benefits. It allows you to:

Set funds aside in advance, helping reduce future financial stress for your family
Plan within today’s budget, even as costs may change over time
Keep your funds securely held in a policy or trust, which remains yours and can be transferred if you move or change plans
Provide your family with clarity and peace of mind, knowing your wishes and finances are already organized
Enjoy peace of mind, knowing everything is not only planned but paid for according to your wishes and budget

By preplanning — and, if you wish, pre-funding — in advance, you’re giving your loved ones a lasting gift of clarity, comfort, and financial protection.

Benefits of Preplanning

Ease the Burden on Your Family

In a time of grief, families often feel overwhelmed by decisions and unsure of what their loved one would have wanted. Preplanning removes that guesswork and gives them a clear path forward.
Ensure Your Wishes Are Honored

Whether you prefer a simple service or something more personalized, preplanning gives you the opportunity to make your voice heard - and ensure things are done your way.
Avoid Emotional Overspending

When families plan under stress, it's easy to make quick decisions that cost more than necessary. Preplanning allows you to explore options thoughtfully and lock in choices that fit your budget.
Peace of Mind. Clarity. Control.

Preplanning your funeral is one of the most thoughtful and meaningful gifts you can give your loved ones. While it's not always easy to talk about, it can provide profound peace of mind - both for you and for those you love.
