When a loved one dies, it can be hard to focus on practical matters, such as funeral planning. Arranging a funeral can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be a difficult process. With the right funeral home and by keeping some simple things in mind when making the arrangements, the process can even be healing. Adzima Funeral Home in Stratford, CT, has been handling funeral services for the community for over 100 years. They want to help make things easier when you're planning a funeral for a loved one.

To that end, their compassionate and professional staff has come up with a list of some things to consider when you're arranging a funeral:

• Ask Questions: Don’t be afraid to ask the funeral director as many questions as you need to make you feel at ease. Feel free to bring a list to your meeting if that helps you gather your thoughts. Many funeral directors are also readily available by phone to answer additional questions if you remember something else after you've gone home.
• Discuss Service & Payment Options: When you’re meeting with the funeral staff to discuss arrangements, be sure to talk about all the different service options the funeral home has available. While you’re discussing these options, ask about costs and payment.
• Make Decisions In Advance: Be prepared to make decisions and organize details in advance of your meeting. It might be best to gather with close family members ahead of time and decide together how to best honor your loved one.
• Plan A Personalized Funeral: This step is the most important. Planning a funeral that truly honors your loved one’s unique personality and all the memories you shared with them will help you and your family with the healing process.
