WHY IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO PLAN A FUNERAL IN ADVANCE:

First, it gives the family the opportunity to express their feelings openly on a personal and important matter.

Second, decisions made ahead reduce the burden on the survivors at the time of death.

Third, your family will know what you want and not what they think you want.

Fourth, financial arrangements may also be completed in advance to help offset the effects of inflation.

Pre-planning ensures that your wishes are precisely followed, while your family is not burdened with the task of making emotionally difficult decisions.  If you simply wish to make your choices in advance and keep them on file, we suggest this type of arrangement.
