Understanding Cremation Preplanning: FAQs for Peace of Mind
Cremation preplanning can feel overwhelming, but having clear answers can bring comfort and clarity. Our FAQ section addresses the most common questions families have about planning ahead. With the right information, you can make confident choices that reflect your wishes and ease the burden on loved ones.
What steps are involved in prearranging a cremation?
The first step would be to write down your wishes. Indicate if you would prefer burial or cremation. Write down your ideas for the service you would like, cemetery choice, etc. If you've made those choices, or even if you're unsure, schedule a time to meet with one of our cremation directors who can explain the different service options, merchandise choices, as well as the different ways to pay for the cremation.
What information do I need to prearrange a cremation?
You'll need basic information about yourself or the person you are planning for, such as date of birth, marital status, parents' full names, etc. Besides the biological information, you'll need to choose burial or cremation, what type of service you'd like, which cemetery to use, etc. Our caring staff will help you with this process.
Do I have to pay in advance?
Preplanning is merely making your wishes known; however, most families who do this also choose to pre-fund their cremation. Doing so will relieve the financial burden on your family and offer peace of mind to you.
