'Any last wishes?' Why you should plan for what's ahead

Planning and talking about our very own funeral is a bit harsh and heartbreaking for some. It is not for everyone to talk about.


Some are grasping the belief that they shouldn't be talking or even planning about their funeral until they are old or already on their deathbed. Just like how the saying goes, "We'll cross the bridge when we get there".


But the reality is, we don't know when it will be. Even if we live a healthy life, look after our safety, and do everything to keep ourselves from danger.


Unfortunately, for some, the timeline is so short and sudden that everyone he/she loves will be left stressed and shocked.


Planning is a must


Departing from this world without any instructions for your last wishes? That's an unfortunate scenario.


Pre-planning does not mean it will happen soon or you're inviting death to come to you. It is preparing so the people that you love will not be left so stressed.


Also, that will be the last time that your loved ones can do something for you, so let them. Are you thinking of any reasons not to plan? But there are a lot of reasons why pre-planning is very important.



Planning allows you to ensure your last wishes will be executed.

This will ensure you that your last wishes will be executed just how you like them. You can plan things like what are the songs to be played, the eulogy program, what kind of flower and what color, where will be the wake and many more.


It is cost-effective so you can save more.

Pre-planning will give you a good price for everything. It's like buying at the wholesale price so the price is more reasonable than buying on the spot.


It will help your loved ones to lessen the stress.

This is a very stressful and emotional moment. At times, one cannot think straight and decide. Pre-planning will save them from stressing out about what will be the best funeral services. They can focus on grieving.


Time-efficient. There are a lot of things that need to be done before and after the funeral. Pre-planning allows you to skip all the hassle of going all around to process things.


Everything is organized. If you are pre-planned, you'll have the peace of mind that everything is locked in. Every step will be handled in a professional way so that mistakes have no room.


It will avoid family conflict. All of us have our unique beliefs and preferences. The family wants the best for their loved ones. Pre-planning allows you to skip the discussion and set aside the different beliefs since everything has been planned out already.


Financially ready and free from financial burdens. Imagine the stress of your loved ones if all of a sudden they need to pay for everything in one go. It gives you a reasonable price that allows you to pay on a term basis. Your family doesn't need to borrow money to pay for the funeral. They will be free from financial burdens.


Your payment is secured. Saving in cash is good but it is not secured. Intentionally paying for your pre-need is more reasonable since whatever happens in the future like an increase in the market, the price that you pay will be locked in.


 

Make no mistake - we're not telling this as a scare or a way for you, nor a scam to purchase a pre-plan that won't meet your needs. Dearly Departed Crematorium is the premier cremation facility without the expense and hassle of the Metro.


We give care beyond departure for you and your loved ones, so you can have a peaceful time for grief and comfort.
