Pre-Planning for a Funeral? Here’s what you need to know.
On the big to-do list of life, we can bet that planning ahead for your funeral takes the lowest priority, if it makes the list at all.
And hey, who can blame you? You’re a human being with a natural bias toward staying alive. Us too!
It’s natural to avoid thoughts of your own death or the death of those you hold dear. And so, many people put off making final arrangements in favor of procrastinating with the daily tasks of life.
At Coastal Funeral Center we often encounter successful people who planned for every facet of life except for end-of-life arrangements. As a result, their loved ones are often left to make difficult decisions at a time when they are the least emotionally and mentally prepared to do so. Enter: second guessing, guilt-driven decision making and family squabbles.
Thankfully, it doesn’t have to be this way.
You can create a new to-do list. One where you prioritize the inevitable and prepare an easy way forward for your family. And we’d love to help. We’ll demystify the funeral process, giving you the courage to plan ahead and your family the confidence to carry out your wishes. To do so, we’re going to share our to-do list with you: the five planning elements for a life well celebrated.
