WHITNEY-RIBEY FUNERAL HOME RESPECTFULLY SERVING FAMILIES IN HURON COUNTY 87 Goderich St. W., Seaforth 527-1390 One of Huron Countys prominent businesses is WHITNEY- RII3EY FUNERAL HOME, where the personalized service of management and staff over the years has created an at- mosphere of confidence and trust not to be found to such a Targe degree elsewhere. The question of making pre -arrangements or preplanning your funeral is most often looked upon as something we can put off until tomorrow. We tend to consider wills and personal insurance more im- portant and therefore these are immediate musts. Funeral planning is personal and can be done n the privacy of your own home or at the funeral home, with each individual wish outlined in such a manner, that the next of kin can feel more at ease when administration is required. A pre -arranged funeral is a practical way of determining an ' individual's wishes in advance. The pre -arranged funeral pro- vides the opportunity to decide the type of services preferred and outline instructions for final arrangements. • If you are planning your own fuoeral, pre -arrangement can also serve as a guide to family and friends. That foresight can be invaluable in a time of stress. It is important to remember that any type of funeral, whether simple or elaborate can be pre-arraned. WHITNEY-RIBEY FUNERAL HOME has been an honoured name with families from any parts of Ontario. Today this honour and respect continues under the guidable of ROSS RIBE1' the funeral director. The Funeral Home is com- posed of completely refurbished rooms. When reviewing leading business and professions in Huron County we are pleased to include WHITNEY-RIBF:1' FUNFYRAI.
