Many of my clients are starting to consider the option of preplanning (and even prufunding) their funerals. This can be very important especially for individuals who are faced with long-term care in a nursing home, because the government allows and even encourages the prefunding of funeral expense up to $5,400.00. Here are some thoughts on why to consider preplanning your funeral.
1. Preplanning lets you make your wishes known, so your loved ones won't have to worry. They won't have to wonder if they made the right decisions.
2. Preplanning will helps reduce emotional overspending by your family and loved ones from grief or guilt.
3. Preplanning gives you a chance to personalize your funeral and make it a celebration of your life. Often your family just don't know what you would have wanted.
4. Prefunding helps relieve you and your family from future financial responsibility.
5. Peace of mind.
Couldn't have said it better myself! Keep up the good working in providng information to the community.
