Funeral planning offered through Beacon Wealth Services. Final expense plans are not “one size fits all” programs and our firm can assist to fit each individual’s needs and budget. Our firm specializes in doing this thoughtfully and effectively in developing the right plan for you!
Over the years the cost of final expenses has been on the increase. The average funeral cost today is $7,755*. Additional fees for cemetery, monument, flowers, & obituaries can increase this cost to nearly $10,000**. The Social Security Death Benefit only provides a lump sum benefit of $255 for those who qualify***.
