Bereavement Benefit

LCBA provides a Bereavement Benefit offering comfort to the family of the deceased.

Overview

Standard Benefits

Your loved ones may choose either a live tree seedling to plant in your memory, or a complete grief recovery program that includes a series of four 30-page booklets written to address the stages of grief. Each booklet is timed, based on the date of your passing, to arrive as your loved one enters each new stage of grief.

Veteran Benefits

Honoring our veterans has always been important to us, and now we are offering a rich cherry memorial flag case as a bereavement benefit exclusively for our veteran members.

Telephone Support

In addition, LCBA members can call 315-725-6132 for telephone support and referrals to appropriate professional help. We hope this helps your beneficiary cope with the painful feelings and emotions that arise after losing you.

Your Entire Family

If you, your family, or friends would like additional items, you may order extras from LCBA at cost. Please contact LCBA at 1-800-234-5222 for more information.
