Butherus, Maser & Love Funeral Home offers pre-planning of funeral arrangements - a good way to assure the funeral arrangements you prefer are carried out without your family having to make all the decisions. It's not difficult to do, and there's no "magic" age at which you should plan your funeral.

If you are beginning to make plans for a loved one and death is imminent, here are two helpful forms and checklists. Much of the information requested on these forms will be needed in order to obtain a death certificate. If death has occurred, please call 402 488-0934 immediately. One of our five funeral directors is on call 24 hours a day and will walk you through the steps needed at this difficult time.

Today, many people are making their own plans…and choosing to pre-fund the program. There are several ways to pre-fund a funeral. In Nebraska the law requires that all monies held for funerals to be performed in the future, must be trusted. Butherus, Maser & Love offers a bank master trust where money is deposited in local bank and held in the depositor's name and social security number until time of need. We also offer an insurance plan placing the money in a whole life policy which is accessible at time of death to pay for the funeral.

We can offer payment plans to suit one's budget and our counselors work with our families to find which program best fits their needs.

Some important questions about the trust you use to pre-fund your services.

1. Is the money protected against possible future medical expenses?
2. Is Medicaid spend down needed?
3. Is it refundable?
4. What happens to the interest?
5. Do I pay taxes on the growth of this account?
6. Is it transferable?

What ever the cost of your chosen funeral service today, surely that funeral will cost much more in the future. With funeral pre-planning, you can pay the full amount today for your funeral and make payments to fit your budget. Then you know your funeral is fully funded when the need arises.

Butherus, Maser & Love is fully authorized and qualified to help you plan ahead. Ask for complete details by making an appointment with one of our helpful Family Service Counselors.
