For a long time, the only way that families could plan funeral services for their loved ones was by taking trips down to funeral homes in Palm Harbor, FL to do it in person. But these days, they don’t always have to do this anymore. In part because of the COVID-19 pandemic, many funeral homes have started to provide families with different ways in which they can make funeral arrangements for their loved ones. You should think about which way will work best for you and your family before you begin putting funeral plans into place for a loved one. See several of the ways that you can plan funeral services for a loved one below.
You can still visit a funeral home in person to do it.
If you would prefer to visit a Palm Harbor, FL funeral home in person to make funeral arrangements for a loved one, it’s still entirely possible to do this. You just want to make sure that you pick out a funeral home that’s going to take the proper precautions as far as COVID-19 is concerned. They should make it a point to clean their premises early and often. This will put your mind at ease while you’re visiting a funeral home to plan a loved one’s funeral services.
You can also do it over Zoom.
If you don’t feel comfortable visiting a funeral home in person to plan a loved one’s funeral services, you’re also welcome to do it from home through Zoom. Zoom has obviously turned into a very effective tool for many people throughout the course of the COVID-19 pandemic, and that includes those in the funeral industry. You can enjoy having face-to-face interactions with a funeral director through Zoom without having to be in the same room as them. FaceTime is also another option that many funeral homes have started to offer to those who like the idea of video-chatting their way through the funeral planning process.
You can do it through email as well.
If you don’t mind not having face-to-face conversations with a funeral director as you make funeral arrangements for a loved one, some funeral homes will make it possible for you to plan things out through email. This is going to mean that you’re going to have to spend your fair share of typing while breaking down the ideas that you have for your loved one’s funeral. But it’s a pretty good way to keep all of the funeral plans that you’re making straight. You can refer back to them at any time to get some clarity.
You can even do it in your own home with a funeral director.
If you want to meet with a funeral director in person but you don’t want to do it at a funeral home, many funeral homes will now send a funeral director to your home. This will give you the opportunity to be in the same room with a funeral director without putting you in a position where you have to leave your home. It’s an ideal solution for those who are making it a point to stay home as often as possible during the COVID-19 pandemic.
