THE RIGHT FINAL RESTING PLACE

Posted on: October 16th, 2017

The best funeral and resting place is often the one that you plan before you die.  Preplanning your funeral is a way to ensure your wishes are met and spares your family the stress of making these decisions under the pressure of time and strong emotions.  A few questions to consider:

1) Do you want your body buried, cremated, or donated to science?
2) Do you have a final resting place in mind? Have you purchased a cemetery plot or do you have a location you wish your ashes to be spread?
3) What type of service do you wish to have?
4) Would you like a visitation or viewing?

Once you’ve thought about these things, you can begin searching for funeral services.  To begin, check a recent price survey by visiting www.parting.com to find estimated prices by searching for funeral homes by zip code and by service type.
