Pre-Arrangement Services
 
Discussing death is often difficult. A death in a family may create problems for survivors which can be alleviated by discussion and pre-planning. Funeral arrangements, including traditional funerals and cremation services should be discussed openly and frankly, whenever possible. Pre-planning and pre-financing a funeral or cremation service is a method many people choose to assist their survivors after death occurs.

Careful counselling with an experienced funeral director can avoid unwise planning and will provide peace of mind for all involved. We recommend consulting those survivors who will be most affected by the death. Allow them the opportunity to be active participants in the decision making process, when appropriate.

Part of funeral or cremation pre-planning is pre-funding. Funds paid in advance of Funeral Services provided are held in Funeral Trust Accounts. These accounts are interest bearing, with interest accumulating to be used to offset any increases in funeral expenses. These funds are placed in either revocable or irrevocable trust accounts based upon the Medical status of the individual.

Pre-arrangement conferences are available either in our office or in the privacy of your home. We are available at your convenience to discuss your wishes and provide further information. Click here to start the pre-planning process.
