Why Should You Preplan Your Funeral?
As we all know, the death of a loved one can be a very trying and difficult time for friends and family. However, during this period of adjustment and emotional distress, many important questions arise, including:
- What kind of funeral should we plan?
- Should we bury or cremate?
- Where will we hold the services?
- Who do we need to tell about the service?
- What would our dearly departed want?
Just as important, they may ask:
