Pre - Arrangements
| Pre - Arrange On - Line It takes less than 10 minutes to Complete our " Basic Planner" |
Why Plan Ahead? Peace of Mind Many who have undergone the emotional strain of arranging a funeral within hours of losing a loved one have made the choice to pre-plan their own funeral. Doing so lifts the burden from their loved ones by relieving decision-making pressure at a time of grief and emotional stress. Funeral arrangements are a deeply personal choice. Pre-planning provides you with the time needed to make practical, detailed decisions that reflect your standards, lifestyle, taste and budget. And we assure you and your family that the choices you make will be carried out as planned. When you finalize your plan, we can advise you of the total cost. You do not have to set aside funds for your plan, but doing so protects you against escalating funeral costs. By locking in today's funeral costs and ensuring that the necessary funds are set aside, you help relieve yourself of unnecessary future worry and your survivors of an unexpected expense.. Pre-Arrangment allows you to consider cost-effective options. There are many flexible payment options to meet your needs. In Georgia, prearranged funeral contracts are not counted as assets for Medicaid spend- down purposes and the death benefit of a preneed life insurance policy grows over time to help offset inflation and that growth may not be taxable to you. |
