Arranging for the funeral of a loved one often
falls on survivors who are not prepared for
the important decisions that must be made during
this time of hardship. We feel that pre-arranging
for a funeral can be a most important asset
to a family at the time of the passing of a
loved one. It can lighten the burden from your
family members and also helps to ensure that
your personal wishes, or those of a loved one,
are known.
Spilsbury Mortuary has been caring for the
families in our community for nearly 70 years.
If you decide that pre-planning would be beneficial
to you or a loved one, we can sit down with
you to evaluate your funeral needs, and help
you plan a service that will accommodate your
wishes. Your survivors can gain comfort in knowing
that they are implementing your desires.
Pre-arrangements are often considered by
persons who:
Find it important to know
that their funeral has been paid in advance,
so their family does not feel that added
stress
Wish to give their children guidance in
making funeral arrangements
Are moving from the community, but wish
to have their funerals in their home community
Are applying for or are on SSI or Medicaid,
who want to pay for their funeral in advance
by placing funds in an irrevocable funeral
trust.
If you feel you would benefit from pre-planning,
please call us to set up an appointment to visit
with you. If you prefer, we can meet together
in the comfort of your own home.
We also offer you a way to develop a pre-plan
on your own to submit to us to keep on file.
With this method, you can take your time with
the planning process, and only submit it when
you are comfortable with your decisions. We
will keep it on file and have it available for
your family at the right time. We will work
with and comfort your family; our only goal
to assist them at a most tender time. We will
guide them through the planning process, and
help them know that what is occurring is what
you wanted.
