Should You Tell Your Family About Your Pre-Need Plans?

Funeral pre-planning is a final gesture of love and support for your family. It relieves them of the burden of making decisions about funeral arrangements when they are coping with the newness of losing you, and it also helps to alleviate their worry about not planning the kinds of funeral services you would have wanted. Although discussing funeral pre-planning may not always be easy, talking to your family about your plan is important.

Although your funeral home will keep your pre-need plans and can provide them to your family, at least 1 family member should know that your plans exist, so that he or she can access them after your death. Often, people find it helpful to discuss their plans with all of their close family members, so everyone understands their wishes.
