Advance funeral planning just makes sense. When someone dies the family is faced with a multitude of decisions at a most difficult time. They must answer questions concerning the type of service, what style and color of casket, how much to spend, what florist and type of floral arrangement and other important decisions.
Advance planning takes the burden off families by discussing all the necessary details of a funeral. Many people don't realize the amount of information required to plan a funeral. Often times those making the arrangements are not knowledgeable in all necessary areas.
For instance, do you know your mother's mother's (your grandmother) maiden name; do you know all of your parents' siblings' names and resident location, where were your parents born?If you know this important information about your parents, do your children know the same information about you?

I personally felt very comforted and so… much that I had to take care of for other funerals of loved ones, was taken care of by them. Spiritually taken care of through the process. I wish everyone going through this difficult time of losing a loved one could be cared for in the way we
