One of the best things about using National Cremation vs. one of the local providers (e.g. Baldwin Bros) is that National takes care of everything wherever you are at. Our friends purchased through National here in Florida and when she passed away in Michigan, everything was done very professionally. The father of another friend of ours, who was living in North Carolina passed away while visiting the family in Michigan. Because the prepaid service was a local North Carolina funeral home, they wouldn't cover any cost in Michigan and the family had to pay out of pocket for the cremation services in Michigan. National, however, will provide this service where ever you are, even if you are on a trip, visiting family, or move out of the area.
So, if you decide that prepaid cremation services are for you, select your provider wisely. And don't select one that provides their services only in the local area. Even though The Villages is a great place to be now, as you age you may end up moving away and your prepaid provider may not cover the services you already paid for.
