If you answered yes to any of those questions, you’re in the right place and Rich and his team at GLC are here to help you. With over 20+ years in the business, there isn’t a question Rich can’t help you answer or point you to someone who can help. It all starts with a phone call.


How Does It Work?

Step 1: 

It is not a one-size-fits-all approach at Good Life Consultants. We understand each family has different concerns, different needs, and different situations, and being in the business for 20+ years, Rich knows the right questions to ask. That’s why the first step when you plan with Rich is a phone call, in-person meeting, or video call. This discussion is the launching point for Rich and his team to come up with a customized estimate that will encompass all your needs and address all your concerns. 

Step 2: 

A package designed just for you. Each of our clients receives a customized package that has all the information you went over on your call with Rich. This customized package is a true gift for your loved ones. You don’t have to worry about anyone having to search through the house or track down the information by making call after call. Everything they need to know will be in the personalized package you designed with them in mind. 

Step 3:

You and your family have a partner for life. When you preplan with Rich and his team, you can count on above and beyond customer service for life.

Why Prefund?

You remove a tremendous burden from your family on what is certain to be one of the most difficult days of their lives.

You determine the price involved for a funeral based on your personal wishes and decisions.

  • You provide parameters on the amount that should be spent.

  • You gain the flexibility to make payments.

  • You choose a payment plan that fits your budget.

  • You lessen the effects of inflation on the cost of your celebration.

  • You are relieving a great amount of stress on funeral expenses for surviving family members.

  • You prevent life insurance policies from being depleted when you prefund for your funeral.

  • You are allowed to shelter assets. These are then protected monies that still allow you to apply for Medical Assistance, Medicaid, Veteran, or Social Security benefits without penalty.
