    What pre-planning covers

    Your survey touches on the four things every plan comes down to.

    Your Final Wishes

    Burial or cremation, the kind of gathering, music, readings and photos.

    The People You Trust

    Who speaks for you, and who knows where to find everything.

    The Details

    Documents, personal history and the information your family will be asked for.

    Costs and Funding

    What arrangements cost today, and how paying ahead of time can help you save money.

    Does this sound like you?

    You’ve sat at a kitchen table, guessing what Mom would have wanted

    A written plan means your family won’t have to guess or debate who remembers it right.

    Your children live away and would be on the first flight home

    With the decisions already made, they can simply come home and be with family.

    You’ve told the family, “It’s all in the drawer.”

    Pre-planning makes sure what’s in that drawer answers the questions they will be asked.

    You’ve spent your life making sure your family is looked after.

    Arrangements can be paid for over time, so the costs aren’t left for someone else.

    Get your personalized plan

    Based on your answers, we’ll email you a personalized plan and a free pre-planning guide. It only takes a few minutes.
