Pre-Planning gives you ample time to assemble vital statistics that are required for documents such as the death certificate. It gives you time to think about the minister, pallbearers, musical selections, clothing, just to name a few of the many items that have to be considered when death occurs.

We will record all your wishes and vital information as well as assist in gathering documents to keep at the funeral home.
