Pre-Planning Advantages
Every life is worth celebrating and every life has touched numerous others. The last chance any person has to make a statement to the people they love the most is through their own funeral services and how they prepared for them. The service can be as simple or as elaborate as one wishes. The important thing is that it reflects your personal values and removes the burden from those you love the most. Perhaps the greatest message a preplanned arrangement can make is simply removing the uncertainty from the minds of the survivors. If you did it yourself, then the plan was perfect and no one has to wonder if they did the right thing.
Of course there are other practical benefits as well.
