Making pre-planning arrangements is one of the most loving, caring things one can do to leave details and specific personal information that will help family members at the time of one's death. Pre-planning allows you to express your own wishes and to have time to talk things over with your family members prior to the time of need. This process relieves your family of making difficult decisions at the time of need, as those arrangements have already been pre-planned and may even be pre-paid to relieve financial concerns. Our professional staff are experts at dealing with insurance companies and forms, social security and veterans benefits, and pre-paid CDs or other pre-paid arrangements. Some of the most important information needed includes information about :
Yourself: * birthdate, social security information; place of birth; parents' and siblings' names; education including graduation dates and schools or colleges attended; military service including serial numbers, branch of service, enlistment and discharge dates; work and/or retirement history; clubs, church and organization memberships; special interests, honors, awards, hobbies; last will and testament; specific instructions regarding personal jewelry; insurance information
