About

A quiet project, started for one family — shared with many.

Funeral Planning Project

The Funeral Planning Project began the week after a parent died without leaving any instructions behind. The grief was hard enough. The decisions — which casket, which cemetery, which hymn — felt impossible to make in the fog of loss.

"We promised ourselves we'd make it easier for the next family."

What started as a private folder of notes has grown into a free, non-commercial resource. There's nothing to sell here — no caskets, no pre-paid plans, no affiliate links. Just guides, checklists, and gentle prompts to help you put your wishes on paper while you still can.

Planning your funeral isn't morbid. It's one of the kindest gifts you can leave the people who love you.
