Prearranged Funeral Services: A step toward easing the burden on your loved ones
Planning your funeral in advance is a thoughtful gesture. Prearranging your funeral allows you to ensure that your last wishes are respected while providing relief to your family during a difficult time. At Marie-Soleil Phaneuf Funeral Home, we guide you with respect and simplicity so that this process is a source of peace of mind.
Why choose prearranged funeral services?
Peace of mind
Planning your funeral in advance means taking care of your loved ones. It saves them from having to make important decisions in a hurry, while ensuring that your choices will be respected.
Set prices
With the rising cost of living, prearranged funeral plans allow you to lock in today’s prices through an escrow account. This solution ensures that funds will be available at the time of death, without inflation or financial surprises.
Customize every detail
You have the freedom to personalize your funeral according to your values and wishes. Whether it’s cremation, burial, or choosing a coffin or urn, every detail can reflect your personality and wishes.
How do funeral prearrangements work?
1.
A simple encounter
When you meet with our funeral advisors, we take the time to listen to you and answer your questions. Together, we discuss decisions about your funeral, such as:
- The type of ceremony you want: religious, secular, or private.
- The disposition of the body or ashes: burial, columbarium, or scattering.
- Practical details: viewing, reception, bookmarks, music, and more.
2.
A clear and secure contract
Once you have made your choices, a prearranged funeral contract is signed and registered in the Consumer Protection Office’s prearranged funeral contract registry, a step that formalizes your wishes. The amounts paid are protected in a dedicated and regulated fund, ensuring that they will be available when the time comes to honor your choices. This process gives you peace of mind, knowing that your decisions will be respected and taken care of at the time of your death.
