What is PlanRight Whole Life Insurance? 

Each of us will likely have to face the death of a close family member one day, and worrying about funeral costs will only add to the pain and grief. While there’s nothing we can do to ease the pain of loss, planning ahead can remove the financial burden of final expenses.

According to the National Funeral Directors Association, the national median cost of an adult funeral, with viewing and burial, in 2017 was $8,7551 And, this cost does not include the cemetery plot, monument, flowers, obituary or other cash expenses2, which could push the cost well over $10,000.
