The pain and grief of losing a loved one can make even the thought of planning final arrangements overwhelming. As a result, many of us delay making these decisions until they become absolutely necessary—often without considering the rules and laws that govern funeral arrangements. And that’s okay.

Most of us don’t often think about the laws and regulations governing the legal rights to control the disposition of a loved one, just as we rarely consider many aspects of final arrangements until the time comes.
Fortunately, healthcare providers and mortuary professionals are well-versed in these matters and are always ready to assist.
If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask—we’re here to help.
