It is never too soon to talk and think about your funeral.  We have seen first hand the pressure that is taken off families when their loved one has already pre-planned. Give us ring and come and have a chat about your pre-planning.

Planning Ahead

You don’t want to think about your death any sooner than you have to, but planning your funeral service is a caring thing to do for your loved ones. It helps them to know that your wishes for your funeral are being honoured, allowing them to focus on what matters most, spending time with loved ones, supporting each other through a time of sadness, being there for one another.

Making it Easier for your Loved Ones

There are several things you can do to make it easier for your loved ones when you die.
  • The first is to pre-pay for your funeral service and we discuss this in more detail in the Pre-Paid section.
  • The second is to pre-arrange your funeral and this is covered in more detail in the Pre-Arranged section.

Go to Pre-Paid and/or Pre-Arranged link to learn more.
