Facing your first Christmas without a loved one can be daunting. The thought of entertaining, going to family gatherings, and celebrating anything may be very disheartening and quite overwhelming.
Read on, and we will discuss some information that might give you some relief and peace of mind as you navigate this new territory.
The worst thing in the world just happened to you. Your loved one has tragically and unexpectedly passed. How will you ever get through this loss?
This is often called a traumatic loss. When you’ve experienced such an earth-shattering event, it is not uncommon to experience a similarly intense form of mourning called traumatic grief.
Will I ever feel “normal” again? There are many different types of grief recognized by professionals. At some point in all of our lives, we will go through at least one of them.
Let’s talk about prepaid funeral plans.
I have been in the funeral industry for thirteen years and I’ve been selling pre-arrangement policies for much of that time.
Often families think that their loved one has taken care of everything, when in fact, nothing has been.
Perhaps their loved one just happened to see me on the street and waved. Later, they tell their spouse, “I saw Karen, the funeral director from ABC Funeral Home today!” Without a more detailed discussion, the spouse may get the impression that a meeting took place and the funeral arrangements were made when in fact there is no arrangement at all.
Because people can be hesitant to have the full, difficult conversations about death and funeral plans, this sort of misunderstanding happens more often then you might think. When the loved one dies, the family comes to the funeral home and discovers they have a lot of work to do.
This is the kind of surprise you do not want. It might be a hard conversation to have, but it truly is a must.
Is a prepaid funeral plan right for you? Let me guide you through the ins and outs and help you decide the answer.
