Your loved ones headstone: Protecting your investment.

By: Thomas Hunter

The death of a loved one can be an extremely sad and tragic time for the family. However, it can also be a time to honor and remember the wonderful life and memories of your loved one. Selecting a proper headstone to mark the final resting place of your deceased loved one can be a final tribute that will last forever.

Since the time following the death of a loved one can be a chaotic time, it is not a time when many people want to be dealing with funeral expenses. This is why life insurance can be a very wise investment. Life insurance can cover funeral expenses including caskets, vaults, grave plots, headstone, and paying for a funeral director. Funeral expenses can be considerably expensive for a family to have to pay on their own. Life insurance will ensure that your loved one is not put to rest without a proper funeral and burial.

Today there are a number of types of inscriptions and intricate detail that can be put on headstones. Headstones can be custom made to create an everlasting memory of the deceased person. Pictures can even be inscribed upon the stone to give everyone who visits a lasting memory of the deceased’s smiling face. Why settle for a generic stone that you can afford when you could let life insurance take care of funeral arrangements for you. Caskets, funeral home rentals and other expenses can run the total funeral bill sky high. Since the headstone is something that will last forever as a memory and tribute to the person who has died, why not ensure that there will be enough financial funds to create a beautiful memoriam.

Life insurance can be purchased in two forms, permanent life insurance and term life insurance. Term life insurance covers someone for a shorter period of time than permanent life insurance would. Term life insurance is a good choice for people who only want life insurance for a specific period of time. If the person dies within the covered period of time then death benefits are paid. If the person does not die within the covered amount of time then the person is no longer covered under their life insurance policy unless they choose to renew the life insurance policy. Term life insurance offers customers a low rate at first, which can be beneficial to people who need life insurance but do not have a lot of money to spend on it. With term insurance policies you also have the option of turning your policy into a permanent life insurance policy if you choose to. Permanent life insurance policies cover an individual for their entire lifetime. Over time the worth of the policy increases. Permanent life insurance policies can also be used as cash value. The cash that the policy is worth can eventually be used by the policy holder to borrow against and use like a loan in cases where they are in need of financial help. Permanent life insurance policies are also free from being taxed.

Life insurance can be a huge benefit for both yourself and your loved ones once you have passed away. In some cases life insurance can offer you financial support during your lifetime. Once you have passed away your family will not have to be burdened with the financial strains of planning a funeral. There are a number of various expenses that must be taken care of following the death of a loved one and these expenses can certainly add up. Life insurance covers the costs of funeral expenses so that your family will not have to worry about financing a funeral when dealing with such a sad and troubling loss. Headstones are one area where life insurance comes in handy particularly well.

Headstones can be the finals, lasting tribute to a loved one who has passed away. Having the assistance that life insurance provides can allow you to finance your loved one’s headstone and select the perfect tribute that the person would have loved and perhaps selected them self. Consider life insurance for yourself and your loved ones to insure that you and your family will be taken care of long after the deaths of those you love. It will be an investment that will certainly pay off.
