Benefits of Pre-Planning
Because there are so many details and decisions associated with arranging a funeral, planning before the need arises can relieve loved ones of the responsibility of making arrangements at a time that can be difficult. Planning in advance can demonstrate love and consideration; most importantly, it provides peace of mind in knowing that all of the personal and financial considerations have been addressed and that all of the decisions meet your wishes and needs. Pre-planning eliminates doubt.
Pre-arranging services offers a number of important advantages, such as:
- Personal Choices
With pre-planning, you can select the type of services and merchandise that you desire. And, even the smallest detail can be addressed, ensuring that all of your needs and wishes are satisfied.
- Peace of Mind
You can take comfort in the fact that all of the important decisions have been made, relieving family members and friends of many burdens during a difficult time. It is a generous gift of consideration and love.
- Security
The State of Connecticut's law which governs funeral pre funding dictate that 100% of the principal and 100% of the interest it generates remain in an individual account. Its growth is managed by a third party escrow agent (approved by the state). Furthermore, the funds remain in the name of the individual, and can not be paid to the funeral home until a certified copy of the death certificate is provided, and the family signs a form stating that all contracted services and items were satisfactory received at time of need.
- Sensible Planning
Addressing your decisions in advance when you are emotionally and financially prepared to handle them makes sense. It is a fiscally responsible approach for such an important event.
