Lacey gave a clear presentation on cremation expenses, and while I had not expected to buy, I did. I had signed up for MN Cremation but not pre-paid. I may have paid $15 to get a $150 off later. However the base price seemed to have doubled. In looking around, I was surprised how similar all prices were, This is a good, large company, and I split my time between two states. Just decided to pre-pay so my death would be easier for my daughter to handle. Also went for the extra $599 for repatriation as I am out of country at least a month every year. It seemed a good rate for insurance against the high cost of shipping home a casket. Did not know that I could not be cremated first overseas. I do not buy travel insurance.
