If I want to preplan my funeral should I prepay for my funeral when making arrangements?
Prepaying for your funeral in full, or in easy monthly payments, allows your family to avoid unexpected costs during their time of grief. It also keeps you in control of the costs by locking in the expenses of services and merchandise at the time of arrangements, and ensures that your wishes will be carried out. Alternatively, you may have a life insurance policy that may be assigned to the funeral home upon your death to pay for your funeral expenses.
