We all know that our economy is going through some difficult times and that we are all trying to save in every little way that we can. At Joe Jackson Funeral Chapels, we offer you the opportunity to “freeze” the cost of your funeral service.

 

What is a Pre-Arranged Funeral Plan?

A pre-arranged funeral plan is one that is planned for in advance of the person’s death. A pre-arranged plan can mean just having the wishes of the person put on paper for loved ones to be able to see when the time comes of the person’s passing to providing funding in the present day in order to cover one’s cost at the time of death.

 

But I have life insurance, wouldn’t this be enough?

Although having life insurance is a good supplement to a pre-funded funeral, general life insurance does not “freeze” the cost of the funeral provided. Once you purchase a pre-arranged plan, the guaranteed items such as the funeral home services and merchandise provided are locked in price. For example, you purchase $5500 in Services/Merchandise today and you pass away in 2050 and the total of the services and merchandise then is $12000, then your family saved $6500. You are securing today’s prices by beginning your arrangements.

 

Do I have to pay it in full; will I be paying for life?

Our policies are offered in various payment terms, such as 3, 5, 7, or 10 years. We offer both insured and non-insured products. For more information on our pre-arranged plans, please contact one of our skilled pre-need service agents.
