Pre-planning represents a written account or documentation of your desires. A licensed Maryland Funeral Director professional is prepared to offer and explain all options available regarding funeral arrangements that are very personal and need to be tailored to the wants and needs of each individual. All necessary information needed would be the same as a traditional funeral service

A person interested in pre-planning a funeral may be anyone who desired to go on record as a result of definite preferences of specific wants and needs or a person who has no family to make funeral arrangements on their behalf.

Another reason that a person may choose to pre-plan their funeral is to relieve the burden from their families upon entering an extended care facility.

In some cases an irrevocable contract maybe needed for specific assets when applying for medical assistance.

At all other times your pre-need contract is 100% refundable with interest and no penalty. To arrange for a pre-planned or pre-paid funeral, one only needs to make an appointment with Connelly Funeral Home Of Essex to discuss how pre-planning will benefit and protect them.




Today, more and more people are pre-planning their funerals. Pre-need is simply pre-planning or pre-arranging your funeral, taking care of your service details before the need arises.  These details could include whether you would like a traditional funeral or a simple memorial service; a funeral or cremation. It also includes making decisions ahead of time on specific items, such as a place, types of decorations, flowers, clothing and other things that are important to you. Together with a licensed Maryland funeral planning professional you can be sure to create a positive celebration of your life.

Like all other things, funeral prices increase over time. By pre-funding at today's prices, you can be assured that the money will be there to cover tomorrow's funeral costs. At the same time, help relieve the financial burden on those close to you. A pre-funded funeral is also considered an exempt asset when Medicaid, SSI Benefits, Federal Bankruptcy or applying for Nursing Home Care. If you should move out of state, or simply choose another funeral home, your pre-funded funeral arrangements can transfer with you.

Connelly Funeral Home of Essex offers a tax-free (no more IRS statements) insurance program to those who would like to pre-fund their funeral. This program has a built in percentage increase to reflect the inflation of funeral expenses for years to come. This method is endorsed by lawyers, trust officers, and financial planners as an effective way to provide for final expenses and preserve your assets for your beneficiaries. Based on your overall health condition your funeral planning professional can prepare a single or multi year payment plan that will work for you and your specific needs.

We at Connelly Funeral Home of Essex welcome the opportunity to sit down with one of our licensed Maryland funeral planning professionals to discus how both pre-planning and pre-funding can benefit you and your loved ones as well as reflecting your specific wishes.
