Although it is possible to make these arrangements without pre-paying , many families choose to take care of the final expenses in advance. Why?

  • Prepaying relieves surviving family members of the financial burden associated with final expenses.
  • Allows you the opportunity to determine exactly how much to spend for funeral services.
  • Protects assets from confiscation due to long-term care expenses.
  • Transfers the risk of inflation of funeral costs to the funeral home.
  • Offers the opportunity to pay for the final expenses in installments.
