Ingram Funeral Home

Make it easier for those you love

  Today, more and more people are preplanning their funerals. Preplanning, or prearranging, is simply taking care of your service details before the need arises. Working together with our funeral directors, Paul or Craig, you can be sure these details are taken care of.

  Your prearrangement could include whether you would like a traditional funeral or a simple memorial service. It also includes making decisions ahead of time on specific items, such as place of service, types of decorations/flowers, clothing, and other things that are important to you.



Why Preplan?

Make Your Wishes Known.
Your family and friends don't have to guess what you want when you share your thoughts with them.  And, you can be sure you'll get the service you planned for.

Personalize Your Service.
Create a positive celebration of your life. With preplanning, those close to you will know what you would like highlighted about your life,so they can commemorate the “real you.”

Be satisfied, knowing you have relieved an emotional burden for your family.

Planning a special service after losing a loved one is never easy. It is a highly emotional time and brings added stress to those you love,especially when they don’t know your final wishes.




How do you preplan?


Collect Personal Information.
This includes gathering all the facts that you will want people to remember: your biographical information, career, hobbies, family and friends. You can include any other special interests you have to help make your service even more meaningful.

Making Arrangements.
When ready, contact the funeral home and Paul or Craig will sit down with you and explain the various options available. This information will help you to make decisions on your choice of service and any other ideas you may have for your remembrance.

Prefund your funeral.
Funeral prices, like other things, increase over time. By prefunding at today’s prices, you can be assured that the money will be there to cover tomorrow’s funeral costs. Prefunding can also help relieve the financial burden on those close to you. Knowing your wishes ahead of time allows your loved ones to just focus on remembering you and celebrating your life.
