Pre-Planning Options

An act of thoughtfulness now, can be seen as a final gesture of love later.  Prearranging and prepaying for your funeral can lift the unnecessary burden of selection and payment from loved ones at a time when there is burden enough.  If you have made a will, prearranging is necessary.  Preplanning your arrangements is one of the most important steps in making sure your loved ones are cared for after you are gone.  If you plan ahead of time, it will ease the stress of your loved ones.

We would be pleased to sit down with you to record information that will be required for the newspapers and governement at the time of your death.  We can discuss your wishes for services and burial or cremation arrangements and provide a quotation for the costs involved in fulfilling your wishes. All information recorded will then be permanently retained in our files.  At the time of need, your wishes will be carried out exactly as you planned.  Our counsel is available without charge or obligation. 

There are four primary categories of pre-arranging:

1. Information necessary for a death certificate

2. Information necessary for an obituary notice

3. Selection of the type of service:

• Who will officiate
• Music -instrumental or solos during the service - prelude and postlude
• Additional speakers
• Personalization - memorial folders - pictures for a collage display - items to be displayed (golf club, artwork, crafts or anything that provides a fitting trubute)

4. Selection of Products

We would welcome the opportunity to meet you personally to discuss different options and personalization in more detail or to answer any questions you have.
