I decided to preplan for my funeral. What’s the best way to get started?

Hoff Funeral and Cremation

You did the hardest thing already: You have made the decision to pre-plan. Believe it or not, that really is the biggest decision.

I would tell you to start by gathering information. Whether you visit our Planning Ahead page on our website, or another funeral homes, you should be able to find checklists or articles that can help. We actually have a free preplanning checklist you can download. I would also encourage you to reach out to a preplanning specialist.

In our case, Lisa Hawkinson is our Preplanning Specialist. She can give you a lot of information, suggestions and has helped hundreds of families. It’s a free, no obligation, conversation. You will want to share your plan with your family, but I can tell you this, you are truly giving a great gift to your family.
