Advanced Planning


The staff at Poway-Bernardo Mortuary can assist you in planning your traditional funeral or cremation arrangements in advance.

Planning in advance allows one to specify wishes and preferences about funeral or cremation arrangements. Specific decisions may be made related to ceremonies, merchandise, cemetery preferences, or to the simplicity which may be desired. By pre-planning one has the opportunity to ask questions and make decisions based on their own preferences and desires. These preferences should be communicated to family and loved ones and are kept on file at Poway-Bernardo Mortuary.

If desired, Poway-Bernardo Mortuary offers several options, which allow an individual to arrange advance payment for their pre-planning decisions. There are many benefits for pre-arranging one's wishes including guaranteeing prices, peace of mind, and helping to ensure that one's wishes are fully carried out. These pre-arrangement choices include payment plans structured over a period of time or the option of paying for arrangements in full at the time the advanced plans are made.
