A recent study revealed that most people have discussed their funeral wishes with their loved ones, but not with their local funeral home. While it's important to talk to your family about your funeral plans, speaking with a funeral home will help ensure that your wishes will be met. That's why we encourage you to meet with our staff.

During this casual and informal meeting, we'll explain all your options and prices, so you can make the best decision for you and your family. We'll also record every detail of your funeral plans. That way, no matter what happens, you'll know your wishes will be observed.

Whether you are ready to finalize your plans or if you would like to learn more, call us at 812-883-4206 or visit www.hughestaylor.net/planning-ahead/book-a-meeting to set up an appointment.
