Whether you realize it or not, there’s a weight sitting on your loved one’s shoulders. They might not even realize it’s there. What is it? The weight of not knowing your funeral wishes.

If you were to die today, would they know what to do? Would they be able to confidently make decisions about how to honor your life? If you aren’t sure, they probably feel the same. But there’s a solution – preplanning!

By sitting down with us for as little as 60 minutes, we can record your wishes and keep them on file, so your family knows what you want. With that done, you can walk out the door and enjoy your life, knowing that everything has been taken care of.

Contact us at (336) 765-8181 today to schedule your visit!

1. Make small goals for each room, task, or day
2. Sort into designated piles as you go
3. Set a limit to the number of items you can keep
4. Assess the future emotional value of each item

One of the hardest things you can go through is losing a spouse. While it may feel too painful at first to think about them, once you feel comfortable, write down your memories.

Memories fade over time, and by preserving your favorite stories and moments you had with your spouse, you can come back and read them any time you want to reminisce. By keeping a journal, a blog, or even recording yourself telling the stories, you can keep your memories close and honor the beautiful life you shared together.

There are many reasons you might need to fly with cremated remains. Maybe your loved one died somewhere far away from where you live, or maybe you need to transport them to a memorial service across the country.

While you can fly with cremated remains, make sure you use an x-rayable container in your carry-on, not your checked bag. You'll also need to bring proper documentation and check your airline's specific guidelines about transporting cremated remains.

To learn more about flying with cremated remains, please visit www.funeralbasics.org/flying-cremated-remains.
