Don’t Wait! Plan Ahead… It’s a Considerate Choice for Your Loved Ones.
More than a million consumers in San Diego County have not planned for their end of life; many because they don’t want to think about it and others because they haven’t got around to it. The fact remains that without plans, family members are left with decisions about funerals that are made during times of sorrow and bereavement. These decisions are often poorly considered and costs are ignored just to get things done. The SDMS seeks to help consumers prevent this catastrophe.
