Hello, I have learned so much from this forum, and am reaching out for some advice.
My mother is in Hospice care. The hospice chaplain has agreed to do her funeral service when she dies. I need to know how much I should pay him and if I should offer to let him ride with us to the service, which will be about 50 miles away.
Thank you.
However, if this is your one and only experience with this chaplain, I'd say $50/hour.
Edited to add that we will be having a graveside service only.
If a handyman charges $50/hour, then, this chaplain should get paid that.
I would pay him from the time he gets into your car, till the time you drop him back to his car.
He will be “on-duty” all that time.
Plus, a tip would be nice, as well.
Sendhelp, I was thinking I should probably pay him around $200. And, Garden Artist, I will contact the administrative staff next week. Good idea.
Thanks again.
