Advance Planning
We all know that planning ahead for the future just makes good sense. Most of us do that for vacations, retirement and finances. As part of planning for the future, more people are considering arranging their funeral in advance. Planning one’s funeral may seem like a difficult task, however, we often hear from many of our pre-arranged clients what peace of mind it gives them. Decisions are made under much less stress in a casual relaxed setting. Planning a funeral should include family discussions if possible, keeping in mind that the funeral is of the person that died, but for those left behind.
When arranging a funeral in advance, it is not necessary to prepay, however, prepaying is a sound choice in that it guarantees and protects against inflation. At Heinbuck Funeral Home, your prepaid money is safely invested in a GIC, in trust for you, where the interest that accumulates is non-taxable and any excess funds will be returned to your estate. Prepayment may be in full with everything included or a payment schedule may be set up for those wishing to prepay over time.
