Prepaid Funerals
Carol from Co. Louth
Last September, Carol decided to plan and prepay for her own funeral. Being a single mum, Carol was eager to save her children the stress and expense of a funeral should anything ever happen to her.
To prevent her children being left in debt, Carol opted for a prepaid service with Mc Geoughs Funeral Directors in Dundalk.
After choosing a package that suited her best, Carol paid the amount in monthly installments. Overall, Carol was very satisfied with the experience.
