Preplanning is a way to make sure your story is told the way you want it to be. It gives you the ability to make your own decisions in advance, from the details that matter most to the overall wishes you want honored. Instead of leaving those choices to your loved ones during a difficult time, they'll have comfort in knowing exactly what you wanted.
