Preplanning is recognized as an option to families to make important decisions in advance. Planning for the future helps reduce the stress to all involved when most all questions have been responsibly answered ahead of time.

To preplan arrangements the funeral director will record the vital information needed to prepare all documents that are necessary. The funeral director will also ask what are your funeral preferences. The many options to arranging a funeral will be explained so that with the help and advice of family, friends, clergy and the funeral director most of the important decisions are taken care of.

Preplanning may also include selecting a casket, burial vault and other merchandise associated with the service.

There is also the option of paying for the services and merchandise ahead of time. Prepaying funeral expenses creates a peace of mind knowing everything has been taken care of, including the funding. When prepaying, an account is established and expenses are paid at today’s prices. As the account grows over time the increase of funds in the account should cover cost increases over the same period.

The cost of the services and merchandise depends on the choices that were made and will be discussed as the prearrangements are being made. Itemized price lists for the services and merchandise are provided at the prearrangements.
