We were glad to have been a part of her funeral, and I'm glad it didn't come off as being weird that we did that.<br /><br />IT- I don't know if the big guys would have done the same, but I like to think they would. And they've kinda shot themselves in the foot buying so many funeral homes at such high prices, now having to charge $8,000 for a service when family-owned ones are about half that.<br /><br />ANd I've been saying cemetery/golf courses would be a GREAT idea for years. I mean, my dad would LOVE to be buried in the rough on hole 8, you know?<br /><br />Alex- you don't have to be old *or* dying. And you can plan it all right down to the song selections. It's kind of a fun (okay, maybe that's not the right word) thing to do, and you can usually make payments, and if you're young the payments work out to be *less* than if you paid it all at once.

That speaks a lot about you and your funeral home. <br />I also like that I can pre-plan my funeral. I LOVE planning and am quite particular.
