The best gift you can leave... pre-arranging your funeral
So, why pre-plan your funeral?
- Peace of mind – relieves some of the stress for those left behind, as you have left a plan of what you want. Provides information and answers to questions asked.
- Financial security – eases the burden off your family. Also, currently $10,000 is exempt from rest home asset testing.
- Personalisation - your wishes are made known. You can record specific preferences for your funeral, to be celebrated as you want to be remembered.
- You have control until the end – taking care of your funeral arrangements is a thoughtful and caring thing to do for your family.
- Provides comfort to others – a meaningful funeral is an important event for your family and friends. It brings a sense of closure and enables your family to begin the healing process.
