Pre-Need Burial Assistance Packages
Many people don’t realize that they are not legally required to use a funeral home to plan and conduct a funeral. However, because many people have little experience with the many details and legal requirements involved and many are emotionally distraught when it’s time to make the plans, the services of a professional funeral home can be a comfort.
Funerals rank among the most expensive purchases many consumers will ever make. A traditional funeral, including a casket, costs about $6,000, although “extras” like flowers, obituary notices, acknowledgment cards or limousines can add thousands of dollars to the bottom line. Many funerals run well over $10,000.
Yet even if you’re the kind of person who might haggle with a dozen dealers to get the best price on a new car, you’re likely to feel uncomfortable comparing prices or negotiating over the details and cost of a funeral, whether it’s pre-need or at need. Compounding this discomfort is the fact that some people feel a need to “overspend” on a funeral or burial because they think of it as a reflection of their feelings for the deceased.
At Promise Land Here I Come Commemorative Mortuary, we aim to provide the best possible services and support by offering packages to meet the diverse needs of our customers while saving them money on average funeral cost and ensuring they have a beautiful and memorable funeral.
The comfort of these package offerings are intended to reduce the funeral cost up to fifty (50%) and overspending which can arise from several reasons:
- The emotional impact of losing someone can cloud judgment.
- There are often pressing time constraints.
- Many on-the-spot decisions must be made. Most families have no prior experience in funeral planning.
- Some funeral homes and cemeteries may take advantage of the situation and put profit ahead of saving the family money.
Be Prepared – Thinking about death is never easy but doing so may provide some peace of mind for you and your loved ones.
