Common Questions about pre-planning
Why do people pre-plan funerals? Pre-planning reduces stress for your family at an already emotional time. Pre-planning and funding your pre-need agreement assures that your family will never have to pay more in the future for the inflation-protected funeral goods and services you selected and helps relieve them from this added financial responsibility.
How does pre-planning work? You make decisions now about the type of goods and services that you want rather than having your family make them for you when they are emotionally upset. Our staff will assist you in completing the necessary documents.
Does the funding for your pre-planned funeral have to be paid all at once? No. That decision is entirely up to you. You can pay with one single payment or make multiple payments over a period of time.
Does the funeral home hold the money until it is needed? No. For your protection, the funds are protected through a state-approved insurance policy. The insurance we offer is specifically designed for pre-planning; therefore, you cannot be turned down. The funeral home isn’t paid until after the funeral has been provided.
What if I decide to make changes after I have already pre-planned? You can easily make changes to your funeral plan at any time.
What happens to the life insurance that people already have if their funeral is funded with the funeral pre-plan? Their life insurance is paid to the beneficiary (usually a spouse or children) and the beneficiary will keep it rather than paying it toward a funeral bill. A common situation that occurs is that both husband and wife have one or more policies for themselves. When the first one dies, the social security income reduces, but most of the monthly bills stay the same. Life insurance is intended to help make up some of the reduced income for the surviving spouse. It does not help them if they owe it to a funeral home.
