The advantages make sense.

Planning your own funeral. . . .

• Relieves loved ones of unnecessary concern during at-need arrangements
• Allows you to express your wishes concerning your funeral service
• Relieves financial burden on loved ones when arrangements are pre-funded

Assisting our clients with funeral arrangements in advance is a service that we are proud to provide.  We consider our pre-arrangement service to be one of the more rewarding aspects of our business. 

At Generations, the funeral is an event that should reflect upon the individual and provide comfort and closure to the family.  Pre-arrangements greatly increase our ability to create such an atmosphere and we hope that everyone takes advantage of our pre-arrangement services.  When you make your arrangements ahead of time, our staff will assist you in all of your decisions and help you plan a funeral that is meaningful and comforting. 

Our pre-arrangement counselors are fully licensed to consult with you and have years of experience in the funeral industry.  We feel that pre-arranging is an important step to take even if you choose not to fund your funeral in advance.  Having the information already prepared is a considerable gift to your loved ones when a loss occurs.  There is no charge for pre-arranging funeral services. 

There is NO cost when pre-arranging.  However, if you wish to pre-fund your arrangements, we can take care of that as well.  Through an insurance product or trust, you can pay in full or make payments towards your funeral.  This lightens the load on your loved ones even further in a financial sense.  By funding, the costs of our goods and services are guaranteed; and interest mounts to help defray or even cover other costs associated with a funeral.  Current life insurance policies can also be assigned to the funeral services chosen, but these assignments do not guarantee the goods and services we provide as the pre-need insurance products we use do.  Don’t forget to ask us how pre-funding your funeral can help you qualify for Medicaid.
