End-of-Life planning has many benefits, for you as well as your loved ones. Here are the top four reasons why preplanning makes sense:
- You can relieve an emotional burden from those you love.
Leave no doubts by being able to make sound decisions in advance, without stress, you can free your loved ones from this responsibility. This allows your family to concentrate on supporting one another, rather than being asked to make major decisions at a very emotional time. - You can express your own wishes.
Often, families are confused about what is proper. They may agonize over what you would have wanted. By selecting your options in advance, there is no doubt. And, you can even change your mind later, if you wish. - You can relieve the financial burden from those you love.
If you choose in advance to handle the funding for your funeral or cremation, Allen Mortuary offers specially designed pre-need policies that provide a positive alternative. Convenient options are available, allowing you to prepay for services comfortably over time. Sometimes families take out a loan, use funds from savings accounts, sell assets, or individual family members bear the financial burden. These policies assure that your survivors will never have to pay additional funds for the services and merchandise you select. - Today’s funeral or cremation prices, guaranteed for decades.
Another important benefit of preplanning is that you lock in today’s prices and those prices are guaranteed for whenever the death occurs, even if decades from now! This means that inflation will not affect the cost of your funeral. You cannot be turned down for financing due to pre-existing health conditions. You may be amazed at how good it makes you feel to have your wishes on file with us. Enjoy the peace of mind in knowing that these decisions have not been left for others to face.
