Where can you purchase life insurance or burial insurance for 89 year old parent?

I'm sorry, but you have to understand that the life expectancy in the United States is substantially less than 89. You will find it very difficult to get life insurance on a parent who could die any time.

I'm not saying it is impossible. But you would be paying a great deal in a premium that would pay out only about as much as you put in.

Do not be fooled by the multiplicity of advertisements from no-name or small name companies that you see flooding the airwaves of tv and the junk box of your email. You need to consult with an insurance agent of a large and reputable company, so that any deal you do conclude will be honored.

The smaller and less known companies may well honor their deal with you - it's just that you'll learn the deal was far different then you thought.

Also, go with cremation when they pass. It's a lot cheaper.
