Personalized Options
There are many advantages to planning a funeral ahead of time. By preplanning a funeral, difficult decisions will not have to be made during a time of grieving and stress. You will be able to visit a potential resting site and have time to decide on and compare options. Thought can be made to whether or not cremation is an option you may want to choose. Your wishes can be put into writing to give your family direction when the time for the funeral comes. Prepayment options are available for those who wish to pre-fund their funerals. Sometimes people need to reduce their assets to become eligible for financial assistance programs; a pre-funded funeral is an asset that is exempt from financial assistance program eligibility limitations. The staff at Gruetzmacher Funeral Home & Cremation Services will help you plan so that your family can carry out your wishes.
Most of us plan ahead in life. We plan for our wedding, our children's education, family vacations, and other significant expected life events. We also plan for the unexpected events of life by purchasing home, auto and medical insurance.
Understanding the benefits of planning ahead has prompted many to take the step to plan their own arrangements. It just makes sense. Pre-planning your funeral should be a natural part of a well-tended life, as it provides you with time to make end-of-life decisions in a calm and rational atmosphere. Start the online planning process now, or meet with one of our pre-planning advisors. To set up an appointment, you can call us at (920) 842-2151.
Have the Talk of a Lifetime
Through meaningful memorialization? That is, taking time to reflect on the unique life of a loved one and remember the difference they made? Families and friends take an important step in the journey toward healing after death.
People talk about many things with their loved ones: from day-to-day details to big events. Sharing stories with those who matter most isn't just important today; it will be especially significant when it's time to commemorate a life.
Gruetzmacher Funeral Home & Cremation Services is proud to announce its participation in Have the Talk of a Lifetime℠, a national effort to encourage families to have conversations about life and what matters most. These discussions can help families make important decisions about how they wish to remember and honor the lives of their loved ones.
Individuals and their families have more options than ever before for memorializing their loved one at the end of life. From simple to very elaborate, there are a variety of ways a family can honor their loved one in a personal and meaningful way.
Memorialization is so much more than it used to be. It can reflect a person's life story, their values, interests and experiences, and be transformative, healing and comforting. Meaningful memorialization starts when loved ones talk about what matters most: memories made, lessons learned and how they hope to be remembered.
