We recently met with a couple that were struggling with a recent cancer diagnosis, and the thought of paying thousands for a funeral – so soon after all the expenses associated with the illness – was just too much. It’s not the only reason we started this business, but it’s up there.
To many of our clients we are these strangers that come into their lives at the worst possible time. So if we can help ease the burden somewhat, then we’ll take that as a win. Sometimes people are given the impression that death is this difficult process with lots of rules and regulations and being able to tell people, “Yes, you can have a simple casket,” or “yes, you can collect your wife from the hospital” makes me happy.
Just remember that no one should tell you what to do, how to feel and what to spend. An affordable funeral is just as respectful as one that breaks the bank.
