It apparently seemed a little callous to some of those who commented however there are so many aspects of death and dying which are simply "housekeeping" and need to be taken care of so that the process of life and death can go on in a peaceful manner. Pre need funeral arrangements, for instance, insure that the deceased's desires are carried out. One can see and understand the funeral process ahead of time and take the apprehension out of the act of making funeral arrangements. What a caring act, to make pre-need arrangements in order to take that burden off your family. Plus you get the opportunity to be presented for your friends and family in the way that you choose for them to remember you! This is a very practical and useful article.

This author had/has NOTHING invested in this work. Did this author grow up in a Russian orphanage with no human contact for 20 or so years?
