Accessible, Unbiased Information
Seniors and their families face decisions that are difficult
but mandatory. Available information is often biased and offered by sources
with an ulterior motive.
Michigan's aging population needs a source of easily
accessible, unbiased information pertaining to issues that are relevant to
them. We offer workshops in conjunction with local senior groups that address a number of important topics, including
long-term care insurance, funeral and memorial planning, reverse mortgages,
telephone fraud, estate planning and much more.
Death Care Specialist - A Secretive Industry
A 2004 survey showed that 91% of adults age 55+ know
little about the funeral home industry, consult only local funeral homes or
cemeteries for information, and are unaware of the impartial sources on the
consumer info.
The State of Michigan is slow to react, and does little to clean
up the industry, due to the powerful lobby of the Michigan Funeral Directors
Association and the Michigan Cemetery Association.
