Samuel L. Vance & Sons Funeral Directors

A lot of people don’t realize that a Power of Attorney ends at death. Once someone passes, that authority stops immediately, which can leave families feeling unsure about what to do next during an already difficult time.
That’s where pre-planning makes such a difference. By planning your funeral arrangements ahead of time, you’re making sure your wishes are known, and your loved ones aren’t left scrambling or worrying about decisions when they should be focused on grieving and supporting one another.
Pre-planning isn’t about the end - it’s about peace of mind, clarity, and taking care of the people you love.
