Funeral Planning

If you are planning a loved one’s funeral or pre-planning your own, the process can be much easier if you understand your options. Consider these four important questions.

1. What is your budget for the funeral or memorial service?
2. Will the body be present at the funeral?
3. Will you have a religious or traditional funeral or a contemporary funeral or memorial service?
4. Which people will accomplish the many administrative tasks (such as creating funeral programs, selecting speakers for the service and writing obituaries) associated with funeral planning?

Answering these key questions will put you well on your way to planning the perfect funeral or memorial service that fits into your budget. For more detailed information about funeral planning, see this funeral planning article.
