A great sense of grief and loss occurs over the death of a loved one, whether that death is sudden or expected. Experiencing an expected death doesn’t make things easier, but it does generally make the planning for the funeral less difficult.
The list of responsibilities and decisions when someone dies is large and can be overwhelming, but often times when a death is expected, the decedent may have had time to make their own wishes known, either vocally or in writing though a pre-planned will or estate; thus making it easier for the family.
Once the family has chosen a funeral home, the funeral director will help you plan the arrangements for the service.
They will need basic information about the deceased and the family; working with you to ensure a beautiful and respectful service to honor your loved one.
