ALL HUMAN BEINGS have/HAS TO GO THROUGH THE TRANSITION OF SPIRITUAL ESSENCE AND EARTHLY BODY SEPARATION. PLANNING FOR THAT TRANSITION IS AN RESPONSIBILITY OF EACH INDIVIDUAL AND I AM NOT OPPOSED TO TEACHING IT TO EARLY TEENS, SO THAT UNDERSTANDING “TRUE/TRUTH” ABOUT POSITIVE INFORMATION AND DATA, IS SHARED TO “PG-13”, AND FAMILIES CAN STAR PLANNING EARLIER.
UNTIL, CHILDREN REACH THE ADULT AGES, PARENTS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR INSURANCE AND CARE-TAKING, YET MANY FAMILIES, ESPECIALLY WITHIN THE African AMERICAN AND LATINX COMMUNITIES, THERE SEEM TO BE SUCH A GIGANTIC LACK OF PLANNING AND AWARENESS OF MAKING PRE ARRANGEMENTS.

Q1 HOW DO YOU WORK WITHIN FAMILIES THAT MAY QUESTION THE UTILIZATION OF “CREMATION” VS “TRADITIONAL FUNERALS”?
Most of the families that come to us already understand the process of cremation in comparison to traditional burial. For those that may question why cremation is an option, our approach is simply to educate them on what creamtion is, and why it is a viable option for many people. Approximately 80% of all the deaths in the state of Nevada for the past several years are cremated (#1 in the nation). Cremation is less expensive than traditional burial, but many of the other services that most people associate with a funeral service can be done with a cremation, including memorial service, viewing, ect. Even burial is an option, but instead of the full body buried in a casket, the urn with the deceased person’s remains can be buried in the ground or in a mausoleum. For us, it’s a matter of letting families know that there are options, and cremation is one of them.
Q2 WHAT IS THE COST/$$ SAVINGS OF “CREMATION” VS FUNERAL COSTS FOR TODAY’S FAMILIES?
The average cost of a funeral, according to the National Funeral Director’s Association, is between $7,000 to $12,000. This includes viewing and basic service fees, transporting remains to a funeral home, casket, embalming, and other preparation. Often times, these costs DO NOT include a cemetery, monument, marker, or miscellaneous items like flowers. The cost of a direct cremation without a service or memorial can average anywhere from $700 – $3000. The price goes up if services are added like a memorial, embalming for viewing prior to cremation, etc, which could drive the price up to around $6000 – $7000. Cremation, regardless of the added services, will still be much less than a traditional burial.
Q3 WHAT PARTS OF THE NATION AND THE WORLD CAN YOU OFFER AS AND ADVANTAGE FOR WORKING WITH INSPIRED LIFE MEMORIALS & CREMATIONS?
Las Vegas is a very melting pot of individuals coming from all over the world to live. It is a big destination for the retired community, who still have family living in other parts of the nation and world. Inspired Life has the ability to offer online and virtual arrangements for families that are unable to come to Las Vegas to handle the business of a deceased loved one. We also are able to ship cremated remains anywhere in the world, so families can have piece of mind, and not have the stress of trying to figure out how to get their loved ones’ cremated remains to them. One unique and amazing service that we have at INSPIRED LIFE is that, for the Hispanic and Latin community, especially for families in Mexico and Central America, we have the ability to transport deceased loved ones to the border of Mexico by ground. Many families want to bury their loved ones in their home country, and with Inspired Life’s connections with the Mexico consulate and others, we are giving families an affordable option by transporting by ground versus by air.
Q4 THERE SEEMS TO BE SUCH A PROBLEM FOR PEOPLE OF COLOR(S) TO PRE PLAN FOR SOMETHING AS TRUE/INEVITABLE, AS THEIR OWN COMING DEATHS; WHAT %/PERCENTAGE OF THE POPULATION OF PEOPLE OF COLORS DO YOU BELIEVE, FAILS TO MAKE PROPER DEATH ARRANGEMENTS??
According to a 2015 study by the Funeral and Memorial Information Council 89% of people feel a discussion about their end-of-life wishes would be meaningful, and 69% of those would prefer to pre-arrange their own service. However, only 17% of those surveyed made arrangements. While this study isn’t directly related to people of color, I would confidently assume that the numbers are decidedly worse for people of color.
Q5 PLEASE ELABORATE ON ANYTHING THAT YOU WANT YOUR POTENTIAL; CLIENTS AND FAMILIES TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR SERVICES AT INSPIRED LIFE MEMORIALS AND CREMATIONS OR YOUR OWN BACKGROUND(S)
Inspired Life is a locally owned, boutique-style funeral home that caters to every demographic. While we are proudly minority owned, our services are designed for every community, whether that is for the African American or Asian community; the Catholic or Baptist denomination; we cater and serve everyone. Jevon Banks and I are Las Vegas natives, and our desire was to build something different, unique, yet affordable, that would help families truly celebrate the lives of the loved ones that inspired them.
We are not your traditional, dreary funeral home. We are modern and upscale, with a focus on customer service, streamlined processes, and lower cost. We call it “affordable luxury”. We offer all services from simple, direct cremation services without a memorial, to full scale funeral and burial services. Additionally, we offer pre-planning options for those that want to be proactive in planning.
