Why plan ahead?

Planning your final arrangements ahead of time provides benefits for both your family and you. 

Pre-planning helps your Edmonton Family

When you pass, it will be an emotional time for your family. By pre-planning your final arrangements, you can spare your family added responsibilities and stress.

• Alleviates the need for the family to make uncertain decisions at a time of confusion and grief
• Eliminates the sudden financial burden of final expenses
• Eliminates the risk of emotional over-spending by family members
• You can discuss final arrangement options openly with your family in a relaxed environment with clarity of mind

Pre-Planning Saves Your Edmonton Family Money

By pre-planning your final arrangements today, you will be able to take advantage of a variety of financial benefits.

• As with most products and services, funeral and cemetery costs rise as the years go by. By pre-planning your final arrangements now, you can lock in at today’s lower prices potentially saving thousands of dollars in the future
  
• You determine the budget, reducing the risk that grieving loved ones will spend more than you would want them to
• By paying ahead, you have the option to pay in installments vs. your family having to pay the full amount all at once, later.

Pre-plan the service you want

Pre-planning your final arrangements gives you the opportunity to determine how you would like to be remembered.

• Celebrate your life, your way, by planning any or every stage of your time to remember the event.
• Organize the kind of ceremony you want incorporating elements of your personality, interests, culture and/or religious beliefs.
• Include personal touches that you know will bring comfort to your family members and friends.
