In preneed law, the term 'Trustor' refers to which of the following?

• A. The person responsible for investing the funds
• B. The person for whom the funeral will be provided
• C. The person who pays for the preneed arrangements
• D. The funeral establishment establishing the preneed trust

Answer: (C)

In preneed law, the trustor is the person who creates and funds the trust that will pay for the funeral services. They are the payer, setting aside money specifically for the preneed arrangement. The person for whom the funeral will be provided is the beneficiary, not the trustor, and the funeral establishment or another entity may serve as the trustee who administers the funds. So the best choice is the one who pays for the preneed arrangements.
