A NEW TRUST LAW Dear Friends, Many people have established Irrevocable Funeral Trust Agreements with our Funeral Home. A Wisconsin law and recent state and federal instructions temporarily permit dividends or interest on this trust to also be made irrevocable. The purpose of the law is twofold: Depositors like you now have the option to make dividends interest on the first $1500 of the trust fund also irrevocable, increasing the amount available for your funeral.

This will help meet increasing costs due to inflation; and Dividends and interest made irrevocable should no longer be included in computing Title 16 and 19 income limitations. The decision whether or not to take advantage of this program is voluntary. Our only purpose in writing this is to make sure you know of this new law. If you would like to set up an irrevocable funeral trust, please contact us. If you already have a trust with us, and would now like to make the interest irrevocable, contact us as soon as possible.

The federal ruling is temporary and we presently anticipate this right to make dividends and interest also irrevocable will expire as early as October 31st of this year. Very truly yours, Blaney Funeral Home BLANEY EY FUNERAL HOME 1521 Shawano Avenue (414) 494-7447.
