Pre-Arrangement Services
Do you believe that funeral arrangements should be made in advance rather than leave
important decisions to be made under emotional stress? We at Consigli Ruggerio Funeral
Home do...as do the thousands of Families who have taken the time to prearrange
their funerals.
An important part of estate planning is the preplanning of your funeral. Who knows
better what you would have in way of your funeral? Inquiring before the need arises
provides the opportunity to compare services, caskets and costs, under circumstances
free of a sense of urgency. The advantages of having had all funeral arrangements
made in advance are most appreciated when the death occurs.
We at the Consigli Ruggerio Funeral Home believe that it is in your best interests
to consider pre-arrangement of funeral plans and respectfully suggest that you come
to the office where pre-arrangement may be discussed calmly, in confidence and without
obligation. Based upon the response from families served, it has been our experience
that it has proven to be in the best interest of the next of kin to have prearranged
the funeral.
Why should I preplan?
Pre-arranging is a responsible and loving way to express your wishes, lessening
the burden to your loved ones. After selecting a funeral director the next sensible
step is to pre-arrange the service. People do this to be helpful to their families
and loved ones and possibly even to avoid questions and uncertainties later on.
How do I preplan?
First, given that your funeral will most directly affect your family, including
their suggestions in your plans can be helpful.
Second, would be to set up a consultation with us and your family members, to communicate
what you feel are the proper arrangements for your funeral.

We will keep a copy of these forms on file and you should also. Review and update

are in charge, which should be of some comfort to you.
