Dealing with a terminal illness; the death of someone close or even pre-planning your own final arrangements is not always easy. Such questions as "where do I go?" or "what do I do now? must be answered. Today, with the high cost of death care services in this area, inadequate information can result in a severe financial burden for a family. Since 1992, Personal Alternative has significantly changed the face of the funeral business locally and has made making final arrangements easy both emotionally and financially.
What was needed is a more common-sense approach to funeral arrangements - one that demystifies the business, spells out options in a factual way, reduces the costs, and alleviates purchasing pressure by giving the family a real sense of control over decision making.
