Planning for retirement is always a good and responsible thing to do. Planning your future burial arrangements, in advance, is a good and responsible thing to do as well. I cannot begin to say how many families I have helped over the last few years who have benefitted from future burial arrangements having been prepaid. The savings were enormous which comforted the family greatly. The relief on their faces when I informed them all cemetery products and services had been prepaid, and they were not responsible for any burial expenses, was priceless.
For a burial to occur it requires four things: Firstly, a grave or a niche; secondly, a burial vault for a casket or an urn vault for a cremation urn; thirdly, open and closing of the grave or niche; fourthly, grave marker/monument or nameplate. Mount Olivet Cemetery offers flexible payment plans at 0.00% interest over 12, 24, 36, or 48 months for anyone interested in making payments. The term length depends on the amount of the balance. We also offer a 5% Veteran discount. The prices are locked in at the time the agreement is signed and in place. This is important because if someone dies in the future when the prices have increased, the current prices will not be in effect because they locked in their price at the time of the original agreement. This is the main benefit of preplanning. Other benefits include, easing any future burden on family members, and having the peace of mind knowing your arrangements are according to your wishes.
