HELPING THEM COPE When planning your own funeral, it is wise to remember that while you may be the guest of honor, the ceremony isn’t exactly for you. Funerals and memorial services are important for helping loved ones begin the mourning process. Being surrounded by others who cared for the deceased and spending time remembering him or her can lessen the weight of loss for many people. While you should have a say in certain matters, you should also take some time to discuss with your family what they feel they will need after your passing. Death is inevitable, and the more we can have prepared for it, the easier it is for those we leave behind. Preneed funeral plans can be made at any time and offer many advantages. Funeral homes can help you preplan a funeral for yourself, your spouse, or a parent. When the time comes for you to arrange funeral services for a loved one, please call MOSER FUNERAL HOME at (540) 3473431. We invite you to tour our facility, conveniently located at 233 Broadview Ave., Warrenton. We’ll also tell you about our BRIGHT VIEW CEMETERY, just outside of Warrenton. “I think being in love with life is a key to eternal youth.” - Doug Hutchison
