If you do quite a bit of traveling, you may want
to consider purchasing a Travel Protection Plan, as part of the
pre-planning process.
In recent years we have experienced a disturbing new trend for which
you need to be aware. More and more families are faced with death
away from home…whether
| • Traveling or
vacationing |
| • Extended stay at another residence |
| • Receiving medical treatment |
| • Visiting family members |
It happens everyday and additional burdens are suddenly forced
on surviving family members! Identification, family notification,
selecting and coordination with the funeral home, transportation,
and governmental red tape all require immediate attention during
one of the most difficult times for your family. The costs and
complications can be great.
Now you can take advantage of our travel protection plan. Our plan will protect you if a death should occur 100 miles or more from your legal residence. This plan will:
| • Provide peace of
mind and comfort for survivors at the most difficult time |
| • Guarantees complete cost of
transportation from anywhere in the world, potentially saving
you thousands of dollars |
| • Offers full assistance and coordination
through an international network of facilities |
| • Helps complete your prearrangement,
so you don’t leave any loose ends behind |
Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in receiving additional information on our travel protection plan. |
