Job growth in funeral service will be roughly equal to the overall national growth rate in employment over the next 10 years, according to the Federal Bureau of Labor statistics.

The bad news, however, is that there are fewer people working in the industry now than previously reported and any increase in employment is tempered by the prediction that new hires will not keep up with attrition.

Have you thought about your funeral?
It may seem unsettling to think about it but if approached the right way, a funeral can be a beautiful celebration of life meant to bring closure to people who love you.

However, funerals can also bring confusion and financial stress for your family, especially if they don’t know your wishes. Funeral preplanning and the New Jersey Prepaid Funeral Trust Fund can help avoid future issues and bring you and your family peace of mind.
