The Importance of Having a Memorial Plan

Statistically, life and death are both guaranteed. Whether you choose to accept it or not, you’ll die someday – nobody knows when for sure. Dying is part of life. And the key is that we should not ignore it but rather be prepared for it if it comes a little faster than expected – especially if there are people who depend on us.

The most immediate issue after the death of a loved one is the need to make decisions. You’re not in a state to make these decisions. There will be things that need to be done, but you’ll find it extremely difficult to make them. Being prepared is the best way to help you through the grief.

Are you thinking of creating a memorial life plan? You should! Take the necessary steps to make sure that you’ve outlined your funeral wishes and provide comfort and peace to your family during their greatest sorrow. Here are 4 reasons why it’s essential to have a memorial plan.

  1. Reduce Stress for your Family

    It’s important to think about pre-arranging a funeral ahead of time. There are more than 50 details that need to be addressed in the first 24 hours after death. Not only can this seem overwhelming and make your estate vulnerable to financial exploitation, but you leave your family without any time to grieve. By arranging it yourself beforehand, you’re making arrangements on your own terms and not rushed.

  2. Save Money and Protect your Family from Funeral Debt

    When someone you love passes away, the last thing that you should have to worry about is money. Did you know that funeral costs tend to rise every year? The most cost-effective way to say goodbye is to start planning your funeral today. Pre-funding options are an excellent choice: when you pay for a funeral service now, you know what the maximum price will be.

  3. Choose the Way You Want to be Remembered

    Many people have ideas about what they’d like done surrounding their death. Some may feel a burial is a more acceptable form of saying goodbye or prefer to be remembered in other ways, such as celebratory gatherings and obituaries. Planning your funeral in advance will help ensure that the things you find most important will happen. It also gives you a chance to inject some of your personality and reflect on how you’ll be remembered. This can provide comfort and support to your loved ones when it’s needed most at the time of your passing.

  4. Empower Your Family and Relatives

    You want your loved ones to be at peace when thinking about the details of your funeral. You want them to know that everything will be done how you planned. That is why it’s vital to make pre-arranged funeral plans – so that everyone involved knows what should be done. When planning for a future without you, you can rest assured that your wishes will be followed and honored.
