Planning a Funeral
The death of a loved one can prove to be a deeply distressing and traumatic experience.
You will have to make so many decisions. Burial or Cremation, what about vehicles, religious or non religious service. All these things will be covered by the Funeral Director. The cortege, flowers or donations, newspaper announcements etc will all be discussed during the arrangement.
The total cost of the funeral and how this is paid as well as the disbursement fees (Minister, Crematorium, Cemetery etc) will also be fully explained and an itemised estimate will be available.
Pre Paid Funeral Plans
Talking about death and funerals isn’t easy. And yet there are several very
good reasons why having a funeral plan in place makes perfect sense – from
an emotional, practical and financial point of view. From a traditional
funeral, to something simpler, with a plan in place you can make sure you
get the send-off you really want.
A plan allows you to specify your wishes and pay for the funeral
director’s services included in your plan. As customers often tell us, that
can bring peace of mind to you and your family. A plan from Golden Charter
also includes an allowance towards third party costs. These are essential,
non-funeral director services such as the cremation or burial fees, plus the
minister or officiant’s fee to perform the service. The value of the
allowance included in your plan may grow over time. There will only be more
to pay at the time of the funeral if the third party costs exceed the
allowance when you buy your plan, or if the costs increase by more than the
growth of your plan
