Today, pre-planning your funeral wishes is becoming increasingly popular.  People of all ages are realizing the benefits of planning ahead and are becoming more aware of what options are available to them. 

Pre-planning your funeral has several advantages.  When you pre-plan, you are ensured that your funeral wishes will be just as you specified, relieving your family from making haste decisions when they are emotionally distressed.  During the pre-planning process you can make choices about the type of casket and burial vault you would like to where your funeral service will be held and any special music selections.  Because you have taken the time and consideration to plan ahead, you can arrange for a meaningful funeral that reflects your life and directs your family for their peace of mind.     

Another advantage is that you can choose to pre-finance your funeral through an interest-bearing trust.  Trusts allow you to guarantee funeral service and merchandise costs, such as the price of the casket, burial vault, and the traditional funeral service operating costs, at today’s prices.  The trust can be tax-exempt.  Most importantly, trusts relieve the financial burden from your spouse, children, and other family members. 

Funeral trusts can also be useful in estate planning.  Persons find funeral trusts especially helpful in guaranteeing funeral specifics, qualifying for public aid, and moving funds out of an estate while assuring a known eventual expense.
