My grandmother recently died and she prearranged everything, from where the service would be, to the coffin, to the plot and headstone.
I dread at what the cost would be if we had ti pay out of pocket for all of this. She had an open casket, will be buried with her husband, and so on.
It is a racket, with my dad we had him cremated and aservice and I think it was about 3k if memory serves.
