Check to see if your loved one already owns a burial plot. If a burial plot has been chosen in advance, a deed will have been issued to them. Contact the funeral director, or cemetery to verify if they own property. Deeds may often be stored in safe deposit boxes along with wills.
If a burial plot has not been chosen consider buying two side by side plots at this time for you and your spouse. If you would like your children or other family members buried beside you now it the correct and appropriate time to buy these plots as well. Too often people put this off and say "we'll do it later" and when they come back the property has already been sold.
Often purchasing plots before "time of need" will have additional savings with them. You may also choose to finance out the additonal plots and pay them off over a period of a couple of years. When you purchase a plot "at need" there is no discounts, or finance options, and they will be required to be paid in full before any burial can take place.
