Nobody wants to talk about this… but everyone wishes it was handled. So let's get a little uncomfortable for a moment..
Funerals are expensive.
And most families aren’t prepared for that cost.
Let's talk numbers for a sec (I know, I hate numbers too)
Average Cost of Burial Locally Here in Maine & New Hampshire:
Traditional Burial (with viewing, service, etc.)
👉 $8,000 – $10,000+ on average
In Maine specifically, it can exceed $10,000 depending on service
And that often does NOT include:
-Cemetery plot
-Headstone
-Opening/closing grave fees
"But I just want to be cremated"
Full-Service Cremation (with viewing/service)
👉 ~$6,000 – $7,000
Basically, a funeral can cost more than a used car… and most families aren’t ready for it.
That’s why we’re now offering simple burial insurance plans to help take that weight off your family. The monthly premiums are likely much lower than you think.
It’s one of those small decisions now… that makes a really big difference later.
Give us a call if you want the details. No pressure—we’ll just walk you through it. Maine Office (207) 881-6465, New Hampshire Office (603) 441-2365
