BENEFITS OF PRE-ARRANGEMENT

Benefits of pre-arrangement include:

• Peace of mind of having your final affairs documented and in order
• No future price increases for contracted goods and services
• Interest-free payments for up to 60 months for funeral arrangements (36 months for cremation arrangements, 12 months for mausoleum property)
• Unused Funeral and Cremation contracts are 100% refundable at the time of death (does not include mausoleum property contracts)

Consumers should only do business with licensed pre-need sellers in good standing with the Colorado Division of Insurance, such as the Shrine of Remembrance. Some consumers have lost money investing with unlicensed pre-need sellers. Costas Rombocos, CEO of the Shrine of Remembrance, along with other industry leaders and former Colorado Senator MaryAnn Tebedo, rewrote the Colorado Pre-Need Law in the mid 1990’s, introducing many consumer protections, regulatory reporting requirements, and improved accountability for pre-need sales.
