Pre-Paid Funerals
Pre-paying a Funeral is a great way to lock in today’s prices. Sadly, just like with life, everything goes up in price. This is a way to ensure that you're saving your loved ones the stress of paying for your funeral. The funds that you pay for your funeral is put into a trust, and you are given a certificate of currency. The funds are only used when the funeral is needed.
The Average price to send a loved one to Europe is around $14,500. However, please call us to get a quote as prices can very dependent on where they need to go.

There is no legal obligation to either party to undertake this plan when the time comes, and you can keep the plan.
Donations
Some families wish to receive donations to specific charities in lieu of flowers. The most common charities that families donate to are to the charities related to the conditions that the family member had (I.e. Cancer

On the day of your loved one's funeral, one of our directors will leave a lovely box near the entrance of the building and assist you and provide you with the next step.
