Langhans Funeral Home provides families with an opportunity to pre-plan and pre-fund services. Families may come and select the type of merchandise they would like to use; information can be provided to be used for the obituary, the death certificate, and information for the service (for example the church, clergy, music, pallbearers, etc.). Pre-planning arrangements can be provided through traditional mail or electronically using e-mail.

More and more families are making arrangements prior to need.  We can meet with you in the comfort of your home or at one of our conveniently located offices in Parshall or New Town. Our staff is always to available explain the many options and to answer your questions. Typical questions refer to medical assistance or SSI asset exemptions, Veterans and Social Security benefits, public assistance, or death away from home.  Please feel free to contact us at no cost or obligation.
