AMEY^ FUNERAL HOME “Respect For The Living And Reverence For The Dead” Ambulance Service Funeral Directors • PHONE 3-2971 • 24 —HOUR SERVICE —24 Dear Friend: As you knpw, we have had many years experience with burial and funeral plans. Everyone realizes that the Burial Association is not enough to properly cover funeral expenses. So since we have had so many re quests from our people, we are proud to announce that there has been perfect^ a funeral expense plan that is believed to be the best and lowest in cost ever offered by anyone anywhere. All benefits are paid in cash to the beneficiary you name. Small premium payments can be made quarterly or annually. The usual amount of insurance is $5Q0 for each member of the family but can be for a larger amount in certain cases. There is also a $250 plan. Recently legislation was passed which permits us to write $200 ui the Burial Association or add $100 to an old burial certificate. This can only be done at your request, and the $100 is still good if you do not want to add to it. All we ask is an opportunity to send rates and full information. Just call the above numbers. ^ Sincerely yours, W.A. CHARLOTTE HEWS AND VIEWS BY MRS.
