Funeral Pre Planning by Harmony

Harmony Funeral Home offers a pre-planning service that can be the answer to many questions surrounding funeral services. Our own mortality is never an easy subject to talk about, let alone accept as reality, but it is a fact that we all have to face. If you have children, a husband, or a wife, it is very important that you take the responsibility to put things in order in case of a premature death, or a death at a ripe old age from natural causes.

There will always be arrangements that need to be made, people to alert, and legal matters to deal with. Pre-planning your funeral and prepaying for it have many benefits for both you and your survivors.

No one wants to think about financial matters when we are mourning a loved one, but there are several issues around funerals and burials that translate into benefits for preplanning. When you preplan and prepay for a funeral, you lock in current prices, therefore you avoid rising costs in the future.

All wills in New York state go through probate court, and that means your money or your estate that could be used to pay for your funeral will be in limbo for weeks or possibly even months. If you don’t have a will, estate distribution could take even longer. When you prepay for your funeral, your family will not have to struggle to come up with the money to pay for services, instead they can focus on prayer and mourning.
