Funeral Preplanning
Preplanning Makes it Easier for Our Families on the Most Difficult Day
of Their Lives.
 Funeral preplanning is one of the most loving and considerate actions you
can take to spare your family additional stress at a difficult emotional
time. You will be taking care of one of the most trying situations
your loved ones will face after your death.
The last thing your family should have to worry about is finding information
for your death certificate and obituary, or choosing a funeral package
without knowing your desires.

Would you like a traditional funeral or a simple memorial service, a burial
or a cremation? Working together with our experienced funeral
directors, you can ease the stress on your loved ones in planning ahead for
a time when all of their energies will be needed to cope with emotions of
loss and grief.
Also, an advance funeral plan eliminates the anxiety of how your family will
pay for funeral expenses.
Ferguson Funeral Home wants to help you make this process as easy as
possible. We have developed a simple form, one which takes you through
an easy three-step process and allows you to submit your information online,
from the comforts of home.
Alternatively, you can download our form as a printable PDF file, which you
may complete and mail to Ferguson Funeral Home at your convenience.
One of our experienced Funeral Directors will be in touch with you to
finalize any details with which you may need assistance, as well as help you
decide on payment arrangements.
Everything that is needed or requested by you will be saved until the
necessary time. This system has protective features for both the
client and for Ferguson Funeral Home. Under Pennsylvania law, payments
for funeral preplanning cannot be used before the time of the funeral.
This protects parties on both sides to ensure your funds will be available
for the purpose intended and not used otherwise.
My father took advantage of funeral preplanning for us. It
made things so much easier to deal with. We also knew that the decisions
that were being made were decided by him. We were left with no anxiety.

Helping You Make the Right Decisions
The details of your funeral preplanning are best not left until the end,
as these decisions can be delicate and difficult for your survivors to
decide. Ways we can help you with your advance funeral plan are by
collecting contact information, having you select a funeral package, and
recording specific details that will finalize your funeral arrangements. In
addition, we can gather information to create your own obituary and decide
how the funeral will be paid for. Funeral preplanning includes:
Do-It-Yourself Funeral
As you sit in front of your computer you are taking care of the last
minute details that often take grieving family members hours to complete.
You have the opportunity to give it careful thought and make decisions that
are truly yours. If you want to think of it as such, preplanning offers you
the ability to finalize a “do-it-yourself funeral,” one appropriate to your
wishes.
There are several types of payment methods available for you including
insurance policies, monthly payments, or payment in full. Once your
decisions are made, our funeral counselor will contact you to finalize your
plans.
By preplanning, you can give your loved ones the gift of remembering you
and celebrating your life, rather than dealing with the stress of hoping
they have done things in the way you would have approved. Preplanning can
provide you and your family with one of life’s most important assets: peace
of mind.
