The Patton Ledger · Chapter 05I
Pre‑need planning is not a morbid exercise. It is a generous one. When you arrange your own service in advance, you lift from your family the weight of every decision at the moment they are least equipped to make them.
You choose the service. You choose the music, the readings, the chapel, the casket or urn. You record what matters most. And then — because Patton Brothers locks in today's costs through a licensed pre‑need insurance plan — you remove the financial uncertainty entirely.
Your family receives exactly the farewell you intended, without debate, without last‑minute costs, without guesswork.
Sit with one of our directors — at South Street, at Murfreesboro Pike, or on the phone. No pressure. No decisions required at the first meeting. Just a conversation.
Chapel or graveside? Traditional or cremation? Music, flowers, readings, pallbearers, favourite hymns. We record every detail so your family carries nothing into question.
Through a licensed pre‑need insurance plan, we fix today's prices into the future. Whatever services cost when the time comes — you will not pay more than what you agreed.
Your plan is held securely at Patton Brothers — accessible to either facility, any hour. When the time comes, your family calls us, and we do the rest.
Pastor Derrick L. Jackson or Tonya Scales‑Haynes will meet with you at either house, at your pace.
