Preplanning helps to reduce or eliminate indecision, uncertainty and financial burden when death occurs. A carefully preplanned service can be the most comforting to your family, as it spares them from having to face decisions that can be both emotionally and financially difficult at the time of death. It can give them lasting peace of mind to know that they have acted in accordance with your wishes.

Advance Planning also gives you the opportunity for the design of a personalized service. When someone dies, their family is sometimes surprised and comforted by the number of people who attend the funeral.
It is an inspiration to see at the end of someone’s life the countless number of lives they have touched. That is why we believe with proper planning, a funeral can be a time to grieve, to share, and to remember. Advance Planning can be discussed at any age and plans can be easily amended as your preferences or circumstances change.
If you’ve made your own funeral and cemetery arrangements in advance, you know the relief you’ll provide your loved ones in the future. But how can you inform them of your plans without upsetting them by contemplating your death? Or, how can you let a loved one know that you’d like them to consider their own funeral and cemetery arrangements and share their plans with you? These conversations might seem tough to have, but they don’t need to be. What’s most important is that you have the conversation, not how you have it.
There are many different ways to begin the planning ahead conversation. You know your family and how your loved ones might best respond to the topic. For some families, it might be a casual conversation over dinner or another family gathering. For other families, a formal meeting might be better suited.
Regardless of your approach, the conversation is much easier to have when death is not imminent. Bringing up the subject with loved ones earlier in life makes the topic easier to discuss and keeps the focus on the legacy of one’s life, rather than an impending loss.
Here are some tips that may help you start the advance planning conversation with your loved ones:
Whether you’re sharing plans for your own final arrangements with loved ones, or encouraging loved ones to make and share their plans with you, the conversation about planning ahead is an important one that every family should have. While no one wants to think about their death or the death of a loved one any sooner than they must, having the conversation in advance alleviates the need for potentially more unpleasant or difficult conversations in the future.

Responsible estate planning requires many considerations. Life insurance proceeds provide supplemental survivor income and may be necessary for unpaid medical and legal expenses. Your Will distributes your estate according to your instructions. A preneed funeral contract offers your family inflation protection. Also, you’ll be secure in knowing that you have spared your loved ones added stress, worry, anxiety and expense by prearranging your funeral in writing.
The people who love you will be there for you to the end. Here’s a way to make it easier on them. With PrePlan™, you can arrange and pay for the funeral that someone is going to have to plan and pay for. PrePlan makes it easier on the people who love you. Thousands have relied on PrePlan since its inception in 1988.

We can arrange for a confidential PrePlan conference, at your convenience, with a member of our staff. There is no charge and no obligation for this meeting.
PrePlan allows you to make all of your final arrangements ahead of time – including payment – so that the people who love you won’t have to. PrePlan makes preplanning simple and safe. This is how it works:
