Preplanning for the inevitable doesn’t have to be scary or unaffordable.

The three most expensive and unavoidable common costs all of us will encounter in our lives are shelter, transportation and cemetery expenses. We plan, research and invest in our homes and vehicles but oftentimes we forget or avoid thinking about our final expenses.

People are sometimes hesitant to do cemetery pre-planning because they think they’re not going to die anytime soon, or they may not like the idea of thinking about their own death and funeral. There may even be some superstition that planning your own cemetery arrangements will somehow bring on a hasty death. However, many people who get over their initial resistance or fear to the idea actually find cemetery planning to be a freeing experience. You’re able to make sure things are done exactly in the way you’d intended them, and you’ll know that you’re relieving your loved ones of some very burdensome future responsibilities.

You can begin the cemetery planning process long before you are even close to death. If you’re ill or in the process of dying, cemetery arrangement planning can be a proactive way of dealing with the inevitable.

Whatever your circumstance, Graceland Cemetery’s knowledgeable and compassionate PrePlanning counselors can gently guide you through the process and answer any of your questions along the way. We’re always here when you or your loved ones need us.
