We have found that many MSBC members are missing out on the savings that a MSBC Membership offers.

To ensure that your funeral costs are kept low at the time of death with savings of up to 40%, or more, you must do the following:

1) Inform your family members and/or your executor
before you die that you are a member of MSBC.

2) Impress upon them that they must call the Society at the above number for assistance, prices and direction to the Society’s Funeral Provider.

3) Record any pre-paid funeral expenses on your arrangement form and file the form with the Society so that your family will benefit from your thoughtfulness.
