• Survivors may not know your wishes or understand it and as such they may assume they do know your wishes. For example, they may not know if you prefer cremation; how much you do want them to spend on arrangements; or whom you would want them to invite to the service. Planning ahead puts you in control by allowing you to make informed choices regarding your funeral, cemetery arrangements and others.

Not only does it simplify the funeral process for your survivors, it also eases the stress of deciding what you would have wanted thereby simplifying things for the ones He or she left on Earth.
