Pre-Planning

Many people choose to personally pre-plan their funeral, just as they create their own will, arrange their inheritance, and plan an estate. In addition to providing peace of mind and ensuring that your wishes will be honored, pre-planning lifts the burden of funeral planning from your loved ones during a time of grief.

At Evans-Nordby Funeral Homes, we know that funeral arrangement decisions are deeply personal. Andrea Karels, our advanced planning specialist, is experienced with helping families and individuals with pre-planning. Our pre-planning options allow you to take the time you need to make arrangements reflecting your standards, lifestyle, interests and budget. We assure you and your family that the choices you make will be carried out as planned. Many people also like to set aside funds during the pre-planning stage to cover funeral costs.

Pre-funding

While you certainly don’t have to set aside funds for a prearranged funeral, pre-funding protects you and your family against escalating funeral costs. Evans-Nordby Funeral Homes offers guaranteed prepaid funeral and cremation plans.

With pre-funding, you also receive the following benefits:

  • Tax-free growth on funds you set aside.
  • Funds protected from the costs of long-term care.
  • Funds available when your services are needed.

Evans-Nordby funeral chapel in Osseo, MN handled my husband’s cremation and Celebration of Life service in July of 2023. I can’t say enough positive things about all aspects of my interactions with them. They reached out to help every step of the way—from planning the Celebration of Life service, the service itself, and after care contact. Brittney was the person I primarily worked with. She was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, organized, and had great communication skills, which greatly helped in reducing my stress level. I plan to contact Evans-Nordby soon to pre-plan my own final arrangements.
