Pre-Need

Having served hundreds of families during the years we’ve been in business, we realize how difficult it is for people after the loss of a loved one. We understand that planning a funeral involves making difficult decisions at a very emotional time. We also understand that a funeral service doesn’t have to cost a fortune. We know the value people place on family and the value of a dollar.
As a vital part of our unwavering commitment to excellence in service, we’re always searching for ways to greatly reduce the emotional and often-times financial burden that accompanies the loss of a close loved one. Preplanning meets this need.
Many people don’t understand the importance of preplanning a service, but if you take a moment and put yourself in the place of your loved ones, it is easy to see why you would spare them the stress and anguish associated with your death. At Dingmann Family Funeral Homes, we encourage questions about preplanning and we’re sure the benefits of taking such care will become self-evident.
Our staff of trained, certified, Funeral Preplanning Professionals are specialists in their field. They can provide the insight, experience and professional counseling you deserve, free of charge or obligation. By meeting with one of our directors, face-to-face, you’ll get honest, qualified answers to questions such as:

What papers do I need to collect death benefits?
Who should be contracted first when a death occurs?
If I move, does my funeral plan and protection move with me?
Do you offer convenient, affordable payment plans?

Think carefully about what will be best for you and your family. Fully discuss why you desire certain arrangements and accompanying merchandise. By planning today, you are assured peace of mind for you and your loved ones before the time of need.
