Pre-Planning With Ryans

PrE-Planning

Arranging a funeral can be an emotional and overwhelming task, especially during a difficult time. Will your family know your wishes, which coffin to choose, how much to spend, and if there’s enough money to cover the costs?

By planning your funeral in advance, you can remove one layer of stress for your loved ones.

Pre-paid vs. Pre-planned Funerals

When planning ahead, you may hear the terms “pre-paid” and “pre-planned.” Here’s the difference:

• Pre-paid Funeral: You pay for the funeral costs upfront, ensuring that the price is guaranteed no matter when it’s needed.
• Pre-planned Funeral: You arrange the details of your funeral, but the payment is made later. Once the arrangements are made, we will guide you through the next steps.

What We Offer

In both cases, we will guide you through the entire process, advise on your options, and provide a detailed breakdown of the funeral costs.

If you choose to pre-plan, we encourage you to:

1. Discuss your plan with your next of kin or executor, ensuring they know where the plan is kept and who to contact when the time comes.
2. Set up a dedicated account with your financial institution to cover funeral costs, ensuring your executor has easy access to the funds when needed.

Just like having a will, organizing your funeral arrangements provides peace of mind and helps ensure your wishes are carried out.
