Five Benefits of Preplanning Your Funeral Arrangements

Posted by: Erin Ward in Funeral Information | February 15, 2022
We know preplanning is an uncomfortable topic for many people. However, the uncomfortable topics are often the most important ones to talk about with your loved ones. Avoiding the conversation doesn’t do anyone any good. As it will just cause everyone more stress and pain later when a loved one passes away, and you’re unprepared. 

By taking the time now to have a simple conversation about your end-of-life wishes, you’ll be much more prepared when the time comes. It doesn’t have to be a morbid conversation. Instead, use it as an opportunity to learn more about each other and what matters most to everyone.  

If you’re still on the fence, here are a few benefits of preplanning your funeral arrangements. 

 

Gain Peace of Mind that the Funeral Arrangements Are Taken Care Of. 


Preplanning your funeral arrangement gives you peace of mind that it’s taken care of. Rather than worrying about it later, you know it’s done. Of course, you can always alter your wishes if you change your mind about anything.  

It’s not just about your peace of mind; it’s about your loved ones’ peace of mind too. By preplanning, it eliminates that burden from falling onto your loved ones while they’re grieving. They’ll know it’s taken care of and won’t have to worry about it ahead of time. 

 

Know that You’ll Be Honored How You Want to Be. 


If you don’t preplan, your loved ones will have to come up with something impulsively while experiencing all sorts of emotions. This means the funeral likely won’t turn out how you want it to. 
 
To prevent this, document what parts of your life you want to be highlighted and choose your end-of-life arrangement option. If you want to choose cremation or a green burial method, make that clear so your loved ones don’t choose an option you’re unhappy with. Also, don’t forget to consider your loved ones’ needs when choosing your prearrangements, so they can properly grieve their loss. 

 

Learn More About Your Loved Ones in the Process. 


By having an open conversation as a family, you may learn something new about your loved ones in the process. For example, these are some questions you could ask them:  


  1. What's your favorite childhood memory? 
  2. Were you involved in any sports or activities in school?  
  3. What are your favorite hobbies?  
  4. Is there a hobby you’d like to try? 


Discover What’s Most Important So You Can Live Life to the Fullest. 


While talking to your loved ones, you also may learn more about yourself. By asking yourself tough questions like these below, you can discover what matters most in your life. If you’re not currently living in a way that reflects those answers, you still have time to change that. 

  1. What do you want to accomplish in life
  2. If you died tomorrow, is there anything you’d regret not doing?  
  3. How do you want people to remember you? 
  4. What three words do you want people to use to describe you? 
 

Prepay for the Funeral Arrangements So You Know It’s Taken Care of Financially. 


Another part of preplanning to consider is prepayment. By prepaying, having savings set aside, or at least having a prepay option in mind, that’s one less thing for your loved ones to worry about. If you have no payment plan, this can cause unnecessary tension between loved ones since they’ll have to decide who is paying for it. 
 
Ultimately, preplanning gives you and your loved ones peace of mind and brings you closer together as you learn more about each other. It also helps you learn more about yourself, so you can make the most of your time and not have any regrets.

My credit score had been low for a very long time due to some negative items. About a month ago I hired 760Plus Credit Score to help me fix my credit. Their service is top notch; 11 Hard inquiries, 8 collections, 2 charge offs and an eviction deleted so far . My Equifax report went from 681 to 754 in 30 days, I have zero negative accounts now. I have been giving guidelines to keep my credit on the right track. I'm recommending their service as promised. You can reach out to them via 760pluscreditscore@gmail.com

Need an expert to fix your bad credit? Then 760PLUS CREDIT SCORE is highly recommended. I had very poor credit and could not get a car loan, but when I came across 760Plus on Reddit, my problems were solved. They helped me remove all the irregularities and increased my score to 780, 791, and 775. Our new car has made life a lot easier. You can contact them by email: 760PLUSCREDITSCORE@GMAIL.COM

What can I say; I’m really impressed with their service. After using ovation for a while without any impact, I decided to give JERRYLINK CREDIT GROUP a try. I’m blown away with their service! I can’t believe they deleted all my collections and raised my credit score. I’m at 780 credit score and I applied for a credit card which was approved with a credit line of $5k and our dream of owning a house will come true soon. Before this, I’ve never had a credit card limit higher than $300.I strongly recommend their services. You can reach out to them via JERRYLINKGROUP@GMAIL.COM

I had built my credit score painstakingly over the past 3years with intention of getting a home loan by January 2023. My credit went down drastically when I went through a repossession which dropped my credit by almost 97pts; different negative items began to creep in. With my dream shattered I sought for help everywhere, and came across METRONET CREDIT SOLUTION. I contacted them after a careful review about their jobs. They helped boost my credit score across board to an excellent credit fix. I have been pre-approved for a home loan. You can reach them via customer service on WHATSAPP: +16265140620 or EMAIL: METRONETCREDITSOLUTION at GMAIL dot COM.

They helped me increase my credit score to 810 excellent score and deleted all the negative items on my credit report.

Back in 2015 a nurse came to my mother at tomsonhood VA hospital. My father was in the army. A nurse I’ve never seen before came in and told my mom she had to beg a bank account. She didn’t do something with it. They were going to start charging 2001 for my dad‘s care at the VA hospital she was already showing some signs of dementia and my brother took advantage of that and he his millions and millions of dollars she had over 800,000 and checking and millions of millions in savings 33 million altogether. She had a lot of CDs took them three weeks to close out the account they leave early in the morning come back for five every day she’d be mad about how much money she lost off CDs because they would mature she said she wish you never started this Boule . I wish she didn’t either because three months later my dad passed and that would only been $6000 I would’ve gotten mine here. It’s a long time ago. Brother, head of the body took him three weeks to do it. Mom complained the second day she wish she never started it say that again pushing for her to finish it two days after my dad died my mom started seeing people found out she’s had dementia the whole time she was moving her bank account to my brother. I’ve got bank statements, showing how much money they had more than most people. The manager of the bank recognize me by name and she said, may Mr. Bowman what can I do for it ask her how do you remember why name she said your parents had one of the biggest bank accounts in Meyer bank and we were sorry to see it go .
