Veteran funeral directors Mike and Tracey Carpenter will be at St. Charles on Monday evening, May 22 at 7:00 PM to discuss the importance and practicality of pre-planning the details of one's eventual funeral.
Funeral pre-planning consists of two parts:
A discussion of all of the family's choices regarding visitation and services with a casket selection, a burial vault selection, a Church service vs. a service at the funeral home, and finally a choice of cemetery. There are many options that can be discussed if a family chooses cremation.
A plan for the payment of the arrangements which can help freeze the costs and take that financial burden off of your family.
The Carpenters will do an overview of the above information and then open the floor to any questions regarding funeral service itself and the thoughts about pre-planning funeral services. Other topics include:
⬧ Veteran benefits ⬧ Medicaid and Social Security ⬧ Who will need death certificates ⬧ Cremation requirements; there are 3 ⬧ Flower selections ⬧ Catering and food in the funeral home
We hope you will find this presentation to be worthwhile. It is FREE and open to the public.
