Fortunately, the burial arrangements don't have to be an added burden if planned properly.Dunedin funeral home owner Daren Sternad says funeral costs can easily reach $10,000 for an average burial service. Thankfully, choosing a local family-owned funeral home can help minimize high overhead costs.
