This information is to acquaint you with the different choices to be made concerning advanced planned funeral services. Particular needs and specific prices cannot be covered here as there are many differing options and personal preferences. We hope to inform you of what prearrangement involves. Then, if you would like to discuss your situation and wishes with us, together we can create a plan that best meets your individual needs.

When you prearrange your funeral, you relieve the burden of making certain decisions from your next of kin. This helps them to understand your wishes at the time of need, including the place and type of service, as well as the casket and other merchandise you would prefer. Prearranging your funeral gives the funeral home all of the vital statistics needed at the time of your death, thereby relieving your family from research. All of this can be done at absolutely no cost or obligation to you or your family.

Many people today also pay for their services at the time of prearrangement. This is a major way of relieving financial burdens to your family at the time of your death. When you fund your funeral service in advance you have the opportunity to pay for a future service at today’s costs. This means that you are guaranteed that the cost of the service you plan today, will never increase, regardless of future costs. Your money is safe in whatever plan you choose, it is entirely trusted in a bank or deposited with the insurance company. Another advantage is that a discount may apply when arrangements are paid in full. Payment plans are available for up to one year to freeze the cost of the funeral for those who desire a period of time in which to pay.

We hope this, in a little way, has familiarized you with the various options available. We welcome any questions you may have. Please call us at 870-423-2170 or 479-253-8927, or email us at: nelson@nelsonfuneral.com.  One of our counselors will be happy to assist you.
