Did You Know?

One question we hear often is, "Do I need to notify Social Security when my loved one passes away?"

In Texas, your funeral home will notify the Social Security Administration of the death as part of the services we provide.

Once we have received and released your certified death certificates, the next step is for the surviving spouse or the parent/guardian of any eligible child(ren) to contact the Social Security Administration directly. They can determine whether you or your family members qualify for any survivor benefits or the one-time lump-sum death payment.

Every family's situation is different, so it's important to speak with Social Security to discuss your specific circumstances.

If you have questions about what happens after a death or what paperwork to expect, we're always here to help guide you through the process.

📸 Take the Picture.

When my mom was battling cancer, she didn't want to be in pictures anymore.

The chemotherapy and radiation had changed how she looked, and she just didn't feel like herself.

One day I told her, "Mom, we need these pictures. Someday your great-grandchildren are going to want to know who you were. They're going to want to see your smile and know how much you loved them."

She wasn't thrilled about it... but she agreed.

Today, those photos are priceless.

As a funeral director, I've sat with countless families who wish they had taken just one more picture. Not because it was perfect, but because it existed.

So here's my encouragement to you...

Take the picture.

Get in the frame.
Smile if you can.
Laugh if you want.
Don't wait until you lose the weight, your hair grows back, or life slows down.

One day, someone you love will be incredibly grateful that you did.
Because every life has a story worth telling.

At Wright's, we don't believe personalization should fall solely on the family.

We take the time to listen, learn who your loved one was, and create meaningful keepsakes that reflect their life. For Brandon, that meant designing a custom Fortnite memory board where family and friends could leave messages and memories, then turns into a keepsake his family will treasure for years to come.

Every life has a story. We'd be honored to help tell yours.
