Ask the Funeral Director…

By Joseph Velotti, Funeral Director Roslyn Heights Funeral Home

Preplanning a funeral is undoubtedly one of the biggest and most important decisions you will make in your lifetime. Whether it is for you or a loved one, the first step is obtaining all the necessary information to make an informed decision. More and more people are choosing to preplan/prepay their funeral and burial expenses. In doing so, they recognize that it is smart financial planning and provides great emotional relief for themselves and their loved ones. Prepaying your funeral will allow you to make your own funeral plans, but, more importantly, preplanning will spare surviving relatives and loved ones from the emotional burden of having to make decisions at a time of great stress and grief. The most common questions people ask when they are considering preplanning their funeral arrangements are: #1. Why Pre Plan at all?

• Allows individuals the opportunity to make personal and specific selections for the funeral service that most closely meets their needs.

• Spares loved ones from having to second-guess the wishes of the deceased at the time of need.

• Allows for time to research funeral homes, burial options, and financial considerations; • Provides an option to set aside funds for final expenses, relieving family members of an unexpected financial burden. #2. Why Pre Pay for my arrangements?

• Placing the cost of the funeral (at today's prices) in an investment vehicle, so that the interest earned will keep pace with inflation to cover the cost of the funeral (at future prices) when the death occurs.

• Prevents life insurance policies from being depleted at the time of a loved one's death.

• Allows individuals to consider options while they are better prepared to make sound, fiscally responsible decisions.

• Spares loved ones the unexpected cost of a funeral during a stressful time.

EXCELLENCE

Blank Slate Media wins

IN JOURNALISM

10 state

awards SPOT NEWS COVERAGE First Place Noah Manskar “Reporting an article like this takes some real skill, particularly because not all of the information would fall under the public record. I found the coverage to be engaging and informing.”

COLUMN First Place Judy Epstein “Judy’s columns, are among other things, savory and eminently readable. Many wonderful columnists write readable and enjoyable columns but what sets Judy’s apart is the flavor of her writings and storytelling. I am quite certain that if I were a subscriber to this newspaper, Judy’s column would the thing I’d look most forward to. These entries were clearly winners.”

BEST EDITORIAL PAGE Second Place “I think the pages are well-organized and draw the reader in. The editorials are very good and the columns are well-written. Excellent.”

PAST PRESIDENT’S AWARD for general excellence Third Place Roslyn Times “Great school and community news content”

COVERAGE OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT Third Place Noah Manskar “It’s sad how one person’s financial misdeeds can affect progress of an entire town. Instead off focusing on real issues facing North Hempstead, leaders were bogged down with one man’s tax woes. The Williston Times handled itt professionally, with flair, and good writing.”

COVERAGE OF EDUCATION Third Place Joe Nikic and Noah Manskar “The writers delivered the stories concisely butt with the information needed to fully grasp the issues. Nice work!

SPECIAL SECTIONS/NICHE PUBLICATIONS Second Place Manhasset Times “Nice community guide, strong cover, very strong on ads, a tad short on information and editorial, but still an all around good looking publication.”

BEST SPECIAL SECTION COVER Honorable Mention Rose Palacios, Williston Times
