There’s nothing easy about planning a funeral for a deceased loved one, especially during a period of mourning. However, there are factors you need to consider when making funeral arrangements to help you plan the perfect tribute for your loved one. Serving residents throughout Cincinnati, OH, the caring funeral directors at Frederick Funeral Home are committed to providing guidance through every aspect of the funeral preparation and planning process.

Below, the compassionate professionals share a few factors to consider when planning the funeral for your loved one:

• Final Disposition Method: One of the first factors to consider is the final disposition method which best represents the final wishes of your loved one. Will you arrange a funeral or a cremation? A traditional burial or a mausoleum entombment? Your funeral director can work with you to help create the appropriate service for your loved one.
• Friends & Family Members: You’ll have to decide about how public you want the ceremony to be. You can choose to leave it open for only family members and close friends, or you can open it up to the public so anyone can come and pay their respects to the deceased. Don’t forget to consider who your loved one would have wanted at their memorial.
• Additional Services: In addition to the burial or cremation, there are a number of other services you may wish to include in the funeral arrangements. For instance, you can choose to hold a viewing before the service, which would also require you to purchase embalming services and cosmetic preparations.
