BILL HASKETT you asked! BOB FLETCHER
DOES PRE -PLANNING HELP THE FAMIL YT
Pre -planning for your over funeral arrangements is an ex-
tremely thoughtful thing to do - for your family. This is why:
Pre -panning takes the burden of making funeral arrange-
ments off the family -wtten they are least equipped to cope
with it - when they are bereaved.
With a pre -plan, there can be no disagreement among fami-
ly members over what type of service to have or how much
to spend. The.basia procedures and decisions are arranged
in ad ance: ie to suggest that some of the matters less
crucial to you be left to the survivors because it is important
tor them to have a feeling of involvement.
Finally, If you pre -plan your arrangements, your family will
be assured that Our own wishes for services will be faith-
fully honored. This final tribute to a departed loved one
means a lot to a family wishing to honor his memory.
As funeral directors, we can help you pre -plan your funeral
arrangements. It makes sense to pre -plan. Please call us or
stop by if you would like more information.
