Dear Savvy Senior, I have been thinking about planning my funeral in advance so my kids won’t have to later but would like to inquire about prepaying. Is it a good idea to prepay for a funeral that you might not need for a while?

The DC community mourns Officer Terry Bennett, tragically killed while aiding a stranded driver on I-695, as funeral services are set for January 23 in Landover.

Security measures will be strictly enforced at the service, with weapons, signs, sticks, and large bags of any type not being permitted on the grounds.
