Transfer Arrangements
Transfer Arrangments
One important consideration is if you have pre-funded your funeral at another funeral home and want those arrangements brought to our funeral home. In short, all you have to do is complete our "Transfer of Assignment Form." You do not need to contact the other funeral home, we will take care of all documentation and forms for you.
This is a very simple process and will be explained to you fully. Georgia law requires that pre-funded funerals be totally transferable at the individuals request. At Higgins LaGrange Chapel, we go another step in that we honor your pre-arranged funeral dollar for dollar. In most cases, your family will probably receive money back at the time of your death because our prices are reflective of a local family owned funeral home. Funerals that have been pre-paid in the state of Georgia can only be honored at the funeral home's current prices at the time of your death. The family will never, per Georgia law, be charged more for those services if they have been pre-paid in full, but the servicing funeral home must reimburse any overage in your funeral account to your family once services have been rendered.
