When my wife’s grandma died it was eye opening. She had prepaid for a funeral, but still cost $7500 some how for normal funeral, so don’t prepay one. I’d prefer a pine box in my cow pasture behind the house



Can you elaborate on this a little? Are you saying the family had to pay $7500 above and beyond the prepay amount? Something's not right. My mother prepaid for herself 15 years before she died. Everything was covered, my sister and I paid nothing.


Mom prepaid in 2005 , she passed on Nov. 30 '24...Prepaid contract was "estimated cost at that time" ....incurred interest didn't keep up with inflation..Fwiw Mom was close to 96 so we just had cremation and private family interrment...Now younger ones or accidents probably want the whole package, Mom after she went to retirement home and especially LTC only a couple people other than family visited her

Big funerals seem to be on the way out
