Giving a spur to a Survivor is a biker's tradition of honoring a fallen friend or loss of a loved one.
Here is a presentation given at a friend's funeral (copied from a placard given to the family at the service) - the name has been removed to respect the privacy of the family.
Spur Presentation"Today, I have worn this single spur in honor of [deceased's name].
This tradition dates back to medieval days and the knighthood, when medieval horsemen returning from battle would wear one spur instead of a pair, symbolizing the loss of their brother knight.
This was significant because it was their spurs that symbolized a man was a knight; not his sword, horse or armor. And no matter what kind of hardship a knight faced, he would part with everything else before he would part with his spurs.
This tradition has been handed down and adopted by many groups throughout the centuries. Most notably, perhaps, is the United States Cavalry, where spurs are only awarded to a deserving few. These chosen few represented the best of the best and embodied all that has been, is, and ever will be great within the organization.
The tradition has also been adopted by many of today's "Iron Horsemen" to honor a fallen brother or sister rider.
With this tradition in mind, it is an honor and a privilege to present you with this spur as a keepsake to remember your loved one's last ride. Please accept our deepest condolences."
When the verbal presentation is complete, motorcyclist kneels down, removes his spur, and presents it to the loved one. He then stands back up, turns and walks away.

It depends on what you are wanting to accomplish. If you want to make sure both parties receive an income even after the death of one of the parties then the survivor annuity is your option. If you are not worried about future payments after the death of the fist party then utilize the single annuity.
Setting up an Irrevocable Funeral Trust Final Expense plan can now be done by attorneys, financial planners, insurance agents and funeral consultants. With the funeral trust being offered by the attorney, financial planner, insurance agent or funeral consultant, the senior doesn't have to go to the funeral home. In the comfort of their own homes, they can sign an irrevocable funeral trust that is funded with a single payment life policy.
