PRE-ARRANGING  -  PRE-PLANNING  -  PRE-FUNDING

Making funeral arrangements at the time of loss is extremely difficult for those left behind. When the funeral, and sometimes even payment, have been arranged in advance, most of the decisions have been made, sparing uncertainty and confusion at a time when emotional stress may make decisions difficult.  Most families find it easier to plan their arrangements in advance, calmly and sensibly, when they are not faced with the stress, trauma and mental anguish that a death or even declining health may present.

One of the most important things that you can do for your family is to leave detailed information for final arrangements, which permits them to make the services a personal tribute. It also allows them to keep the services within the margin that you arrange.

You may decide to pre-plan your services without pre-funding them.  However, many families decide to pre-pay for their final arrangements in advance because of the guarantee that can be provided for the services, caskets, vaults, urns, etc.  There are many funding options available from pre-paying in full for the services today or setting up flexible payment plans or assigning to the funeral home existing life insurances or trusts for future payment.

We are always available to discuss your options and help you make the decisions that will be best for you and your family.  If you would like to discuss pre-planning your services today please contact us (24 hours a day) by calling (740) 695-1905 or e-mail us at info@toothmanfuneralhome.com.
