saxophone on top? We can help you have a funeral with all of your wishes that reflect who you are.

Pre-arrange your Funeral

​To pre-arrange a funeral, you meet with your Funeral Director, and they help you go through all of the details of how you want your funeral to run. These details are noted on your pre-arrangement form, providing a guideline or blueprint for your loved ones at the time of your death. You may choose to plan everything or give your loved ones some latitude in making some of their own choices. Pre-arranging your funeral allows you to influence the personal details that are important to you. Your loved ones won’t have to try and guess what you would have wanted or make difficult decisions at an already difficult time.

Have a Funeral that reflects your choices

Whether you just want to protect your family from making challenging, painful or contentious decisions at a time of loss, or you want to ensure your wishes are carried out, pre-arranging your funeral is an important responsibility and one of the greatest gifts you can give your loved ones. 

Contact us to request a consultation with one of our knowledgeable and caring Funeral Directors.
