Pre-Planning a Funeral

planninga1Choosing to pre-plan your funeral ensures that you will have the type and style of funeral service that you want. It can also relieve the pressure of decision making on your family and loved ones. It also means they don’t have to guess how you would have wanted to celebrate your life.

It may well be your last chance to express the sentiments and share the things that gave real meaning and joy to your life. At the end of the day, you may be the only one who really knows these details.

Benefits of Planning Ahead

Pre-planning is something we do all the time. We set money aside for travel, for retirement and other important events. Like writing a Will or purchasing insurance, arranging your funeral in advance plays a similar role in life.

For many years, Tuckers have been caring for people and tailoring funerals to meet their individual needs and circumstances. Today, more and more people prefer to plan ahead. They tell us this gives them a feeling of emotional relief and saves a lot of worry for the people they care for.

Points to consider:

  •     Whether you prefer burial or cremation.
  •     Your choice of cemetery or crematorium and your wishes regarding placement of your ashes.
  •     Special music and readings, videos or pictures to be included in the service.
  •     Type and style of casket or coffin you prefer.
  •     The ceremony venue (indoor or outdoor) for example church, chapel, garden, beach etc.
  •     Lighting and ambience or ‘feel’ of the ceremony venue, for example flowers, candles, etc.
  •     Do you want a funeral procession and what type of cars would you prefer, modern or vintage?
  •     If you would prefer donations to a charity rather than flowers.
