Why Plan Ahead?
1. Take the overwhelming task of planning your services off of your loved one(s), they are already grieving your loss and are very distraught this is not a good time for anyone to make big decisions that can cost tens of thousands of dollars .
2.Chances are you have never made your final wishes known and you should have your wishes fulfilled because you have the opportunity to plan what you want when the time comes.
​
3. another great reason to pre-planning is to save financially , here is how that works , lets say you are 41 years old an chose to pre-plan your services and the total is[ $4,500 today] but you live to be 71 years old due to inflation and the ever rising cost of living, upon your death the total for the exact same arrangements would be around $14,120 but if you was to pre-plan and pay in advance the funds go into a trust, escrow account that is not touched and earns interest to cover the cost of inflation.
4. pre-planning is not only for yourself but you can plan A parents, spouse, or another loved one's
service at a time you are not emotionally distraught, and perhaps the loved one can help you make the estimated 32 different choices and decisions that come along with making final arrangements.

THINK OF THE FOLLOWING
If you should pass away tomorrow dose your spouse, Children , loved ones know what you want? more than likely not, when a person is grieving and emotional they do not think rational, or as they would on a normal day. As bad as I hate to say it that is when a lot of family members are taking advantage of by funeral homes pressuring them into buying expensive items and charging for unnecessary services , the loved ones usually go overboard on spending for outrageous items because since they did not know what you wanted they are going to choose a high priced funeral to express there love and thinking you would be satisfied with the $11,864 service , however if you was planning the service you would more than likely select everything you want "thinking clearly" and have a total of around $5,262 but because you did not pre-plan your children may have cashed in there life savings to bury mommy or daddy."
Help take the burden off your loved ones by taking your end-of-life
decisions in advance, in a calm and thoughtful atmosphere.
