Lock Into a Price & Avoid Inflation

Inflation impacts every industry and funeral homes are not exempt. When you preplan a service and pay in advanced, you can lock into a price on the day you sign the contract and potentially avoid the impact of inflation or rising costs.

Remove the Stress From Your Family

Trying to plan a funeral after a loved one’s passing is difficult. Family members are overcome with grief and not necessarily thinking clearly. By pre-planning a funeral, you can relieve your family of the burden of making these arrangements. Instead, your loved ones can focus their energy on comforting one another.
