Death is a fact of life and yet the fear and dread that surrounds one’s passing is such that most people do not want to think of it.

As a result, when one does pass away, many people are totally unprepared for the important decisions and arrangements that need to be made.

It is wise to choose your Funeral Director in advance. Such a selection is not morbid, in fact it is very wise. When a death occurs there is little time for comparisons and selecting a Funeral Director you are and your family are comfortable with. Pre-planning helps prevent hasty decisions being made that may be regretted later.

Once you have chosen your Funeral Director you can take the next step and pre-plan your funeral service. This is simply the recording of your wishes and other necessary information ahead of the time it is required. There is information required for the registration of a person’s death with the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages that may be difficult to recall at a time when a family coming to terms with their loss. You can also record the type of service you would like and where you would like it held.

Understandably, this takes a great load off grieving family and friends, and gives them the opportunity to mourn without the additional stress of arranging the funeral

pre-planning

We have produced a Pre-Planning Guide and a Planning Ahead Booklet that is available to assist you in recording your funeral wishes.

Our new Planning Ahead Booklet has been written by our Funeral Directors in an easy to read format with no “industry jargon”.

Subjects covered include:

  • All about Anton Brown Funerals
  • Why you should choose a 100% Queensland owned company
  • What to do when someone dies
  • What to expect when making funeral arrangements
  • Funeral Celebrants and their role in your service
  • What to expect on the day of the funeral
  • Pre-Planning a funeral for yourself or a family member

When you combine our comprehensive Planning Ahead Book with our Pre-Planning Guide it is like you have one of our Funeral Directors by your side helping answer all the important questions.
