Funeral home requires payment now before estate is settled. A family member is willing to pay now but would like to be reimbursed once the estate is settled. What type of paper trail would be required for reimbursement? Is an electronic transfer the way to go or credit card? Any insight is appreciated?
If there's no estate checking account set up yet, the temporary donor could pay by charge or check; the funeral home documentation, with acknowledgment of payment, should be adequate to be reimbursed from the estate.
