Pre-planning can provide peace of mind for everyone involved. A carefully pre-planned service can spare your loved ones from having to make numerous decisions on one of the most difficult days of their lives. Planning ahead reduces the emotional and financial burdens your family would have experienced, and can offer them peace of mind knowing they have fulfilled your wishes.
Your pre-arrangements can be simple or as detailed as you wish. Most families choose to select the type of services and merchandise they would prefer, while others only complete the information that will be needed for legal documents and other necessary paperwork.
The Gorgen Funeral Home and the Gorgen-McGinley & Ayers Funeral Home truly believes that any planning ahead can prove to be invaluable when the need arises, providing a sense of direction for the loved ones who are left behind. Pre-planning can also allow the family to focus on other details, thus making the service a loving tribute to the memory of the one they loved so much.
Another reason many families pre-plan is to ensure your family will receive all the benefits for which they are entitled. By recording your personal records, including bank accounts, investment information, insurance policies and locations of important papers, you and your loved ones can be assured that nothing will be overlooked. All of this and your personal wishes for your funeral can be recorded in our Personal Profile - Planning Guide at no cost or further obligation. This will ensure that your beneficiaries receive the protection you planned for at a time when it is needed most.
Although most people choose to set aside funds to cover the future cost of their finial arrangements, it is not required when planning ahead. We offer a variety of prepayment programs that allow you to control what is spent, guarantee today's price, avoid emotional overspending, and protect your funds should public assistance become necessary. A funeral director at Gorgen Funeral Services can meet with you at your convenience at one of our funeral homes or in the privacy of your own home to explain these options and answer any questions you might have.
Once your pre-arrangements are completed and on file, a simple call to our funeral home will enable us to proceed smoothly and efficiently when the need arises. For further information about pre-planning or for answers to your questions, simply give us a call or contact us at gorgenfh@mhtc.net. Please contact Gorgen Funeral Services should you desire to complete your plans more thoroughly.
