“Why should I pre-plan? I won’t be needing it anytime soon.” This is a response I often hear after asking if an individual has made prearranged funeral plans.
There are several clear benefits to advance planning for your own or a loved one’s funeral. For example, preplanning creates a time and space to express your personal wishes without the emotional pain that so many families discover when they have waited until it's too late.
When you arrange a meeting to discuss preplanning, you will be warmly welcomed here at Schramka and provided all the information you need to make an informed decision. You will walk step-by-step through the preplanning process with a licensed professional.
Another important benefit to preplanning a funeral is cost guarantee. When you pre-fund your final wishes at Schramka Funeral Home, we guarantee the cost of our services and the merchandise purchased.
As the average annual cost of business goes up as a result of inflation or other factors, pre-funding your end-of-life wishes years ahead of time will lock in the cost of services and merchandise and
accrue a small amount of interest.
In the long run, you will be saving your family hundreds to thousands of dollars, which is an important financial decision for any family to consider.
Pre-planning can take place wherever you are most comfortable. Schramka has four convenient locations
in Greater Milwaukee. Our contemporary, state-of-the-art funeral home in Brookfield, located directly across from Wisconsin Memorial Park, is warm and inviting and will make you feel at home right away.
For some families, preplanning a funeral is a huge step. There is vulnerability in acknowledging our mortality. If meeting within the comforts of your own home is what you would prefer, we can meet there instead to provide you with the information you need to put your wishes into writing.
