through what is sure to be the most difficult time in your family’s life just a little bit simpler to navigate through.  If this year has taught us anything, it’s that living for today is more important than ever before because tomorrow is never promised to any of us. No one wants to talk about their death or their final wishes but it’s the conversation we need to have and we

have to have and that’s where the compassionate and caring people at Skylawn Funeral Home, Crematory, and Memorial Park come in. Over the past few years, like so many other people we’ve had some experience with this and it really reminded me that although it’s not a topic any of us wants to think about when the time comes, is that an additional burden I want my family to have to face and the answer is of course not. I’ve come to realize that the act of preplanning is actually a gift of love., I can personally attest to the fact that preplanning made all the difference. It’s not easy to talk

about your end-of-life wishes before you have to. But it’s one of the most important conversations you’ll ever have with your loved ones. By preplanning your funeral, you can make sure your life is celebrated the way you want, and give your loved ones the peace-of-mind they need when the time comes. By sharing your end-of-life wishes, you’ll ensure your funeral will truly reflect you and your life. Even more important is the fact that by prearranging your funeral, you can alleviate the stress and burden of making tough decisions at an already difficult time for them.
