Have you ever thought about how you want to be honored by friends and family after you die?
Many people are not comfortable discussing their final arrangements, but it’s important for you to document your wishes ahead of time with your loved ones.
It also helps ease the stress and burden of planning a final farewell for your family members.
Most wills leave instructions for handling financial affairs or medical treatments, but not funerals or cremations services. That means an individual’s family or loved ones would still need to plan and pay for those arrangements.
Dignity Memorial offers a free, online planning guide to help plan funerals and memorial services for loved ones.
Ellie Tabor with Dignity Memorial talked about the process and the benefits of preplanning on “Houston Life.” You can see the interview in the video player above.
