Auxter Funeral Homes - Pre-Planning

Pre-Planning

Preplanning for your funeral or the funeral of a loved one isn’t easy, but being prepared definitely has its advantages.

First, prearrangements serve as an assurance that your wishes for your services will be fulfilled. Your loved ones aren’t left to wonder, “Is this what he/she would have wanted?” Preplanning also eliminates forgetting an important detail. Preparing for a funeral after the death of a loved one is tough. The emotional strain makes it easy to forget what the deceased wanted. Making prearrangements is usually less overwhelming because the family isn’t emotionally distracted.

Second, preplanning allows you to personalize the services to fit your needs and wishes. Your family can feel confident that the services were planned to your liking.

Third, if you pay for your services at the time that you make your prearrangements, you are assuring that your family won’t be left with the financial obligation. You are also protecting yourself from increasing costs due to inflation.

If you already have preplanned your service at another funeral home, we will honor those plans if you choose to transfer them to our family owned and operated funeral home in Bellevue and Clyde. The transfer of arrangements is very simple. There is only one paper for you to sign - no confrontation and no paperwork for you.

After visiting either of our funeral homes you will experience the peaceful setting of the exquisite design. That’s part of the family owned tradition that we have developed over the last 100 years. We pay special attention to your needs with professional and affordable services to help your family and friends lay loved ones to rest.
