Six Reasons to Plan Ahead

1. Togetherness - A family can make choices and decisions together, saving each other heartache, expense and inconvenience.
   
2. Satisfaction - On a pre-need basis, decisions about funeral and cremation services can be discussed by all family members, ensuring everyone’s satisfaction.
   
3. Price Guarantee - Inflation over the last five decades has been close to 5% therefore the cost of funeral services will likely continue to increase.  Advance planning allows the costs to be guaranteed at today’s prices.
   
4. Conserve Insurance - Life insurance is for the living, not the deceased.  Most life insurance is purchased to allow a family time to adjust to the loss of income that a death causes.  If prearrangements are not made, a large amount of insurance proceeds can be spent on funeral and cemetery needs adding financial burdens to loved ones left behind.
   
5. Payments - Funeral and cemetery costs are expenses every individual must plan to pay.  These needs can be met today out of current income through affordable payments whereas payment in full is expected at the time of need.
   
6. Peace of Mind - When a death occurs in any family or among friends, the grief is tremendous and the healing time very long.  Pre-planning will have a positive impact on your family and friends simply because you have made your own decisions.  This peace of mind provides benefits far beyond the dollars spent.
