Pre-Planning

Expressing personal preferences concerning the type of funeral service and related items that you want, is a good idea. It saves others you care about from guessing your desires and making difficult decisions at a stressful time.

We can visit in the privacy of your home, so that, planning can be done in a relaxed atmosphere.

Pre-funding a Funeral

Besides preplanning, we also offer the option to pay in advance. Payment can be made in a lump sum or by payment plans tailored to your needs. An approved Pennsylvania trust or insurance program is used as a depository for the prepaid funds.

Funds are not paid to the funeral home. In accordance with PA Law, 100% of those funds are sent directly to the insurance company or trust. The funds are held by that institution until death occurs, whereupon the funds are sent to the funeral home. Services and merchandise of fully funded funerals are guaranteed to be paid in full, no matter when death occurs.

Pre-funded funerals are transferable and excess funds are returned to the family.

”Putting Your House in Order” Program (Free Legal Planning)

In pre-arranging funerals for folks, we have learned that many people need more than just funeral planning. In many instances, legal planning is also needed. Perhaps, wills need to be written or updated, or Living Wills need written or Power-of-Attorney needs to be designated. Perhaps, there are other Elder Law issues.

Because of this need for legal planning, we offer to any person who pre-arranges a funeral with us, a free one-hour consultation with an attorney. There are 13 attorneys that are providers in our program and a person may select from any of these reputable and recommended attorneys to receive that free consultation.

The funeral only needs to be pre-arranged with our firm. It is not necessary to pre-pay the funeral.

Pre-Arranging a Funeral On-Line

By completing the information on the following form, a person can basically preplan a funeral on-line. In Pennsylvania, according to Pa. Funeral Director Law, Section 13, only a licensed funeral director may shall, directly or indirectly, offer to enter into a contract to render funeral services. So, be sure, one will be contacted by a member of our licensed staff to verify the information and offer to contract to provide the pre-arranged funeral if arranged on-line.
