Advanced Planning
Statistics show that nationally, two out of three final interment arrangements are made by widows. One of life’s most difficult decisions need not be made at a time of bereavement. Families are encouraged to discuss burial plans pre-need so that personalized, unhurried decisions can be made.
More than half of the families who arrange for memorial property at Swan Point Cemetery do so before the need is upon them. This provides protection for the family before an emergency arises, and eliminates the pressure of making such an important decision at a time of grief and confusion.
