Funeral
Pre-Planning
At Best Funeral Home, we understand that during our
lives we plan for many situations such as education, having a family,
vacations, weddings and especially our retirement. As part of the
planning and being prepared throughout our lives, we purchase insurance
to help us in various situations that may occur such as accidents,
earthquakes, fire, floods and theft. However, many neglect to plan their
funeral simply because the thought of knowing one day we may not be here
is a realization of our own mortality. We should also consider the
pre-planning of our funeral service as it not only lets our survivors
know what our wishes are, but it will also help our families through
their time of bereavement.
One of our directors will be more than happy to come
to the comfortable surroundings of your home and discuss what funeral
options may be available at no obligation. Making a pre-planned funeral
arrangement is simply recording your wishes down on paper, collecting
personal information, your choice of service and/or merchandise, and any
other selections. We then keep your pre-planned arrangement on file until
the time of death. When death occurs, one call to Best Funeral Home is
all that is needed to begin the funeral process. We will carry out all
the arrangements according to your wishes, and the benefits from your
pre-paid plan will be sent directly to us to cover the final expense.
The main benefit of pre-planning a funeral is that it
removes the burden of having your family make difficult decisions at a
time when they are experiencing much grief and stress. You can select the
services and merchandise according to your wishes, and spiritual beliefs;
as well as for your financial means, either by pre-paying for the
services or having the monies set aside via a payment option. In
addition, you will have the piece of mind knowing your arrangements were
taken care of, for those you love - at today's prices - not tomorrow's.
At Best Funeral Home there is no
membership fee or filing charges to record your wishes for your services.
There is no obligation for sitting down to discuss which option works
best for you. In fact, we strongly suggest you meet with one of our
directors and then compare our services and prices with others.
Best Funeral Home utilizes Homesteader’s Life Company
for all funding of our funeral pre-planning.
