Write your ending, before someone else has to guess.
My Funeral Plan by John Ashworth
Most people are never asked what they would want, so a stranger fills in the blanks on the hardest day their family will have. This is where you put it in your own words: the service, the people, and the details that matter to you.
A living plan for the people you love, not a price list.
An example of a written wish
“I want my kids to laugh at least once. Play the song we danced to. Keep it small.”
How it works
1
Answer what actually matters
Real questions about who should be there, what kind of goodbye feels right, and what should not be left out.
2
Make it sound like you
The music, the words, and the memories a price list never asks about, in the way you would say them.
3
Put it in writing
Your wishes end up on paper, so your family works from your words instead of a guess.
Why this exists
This is not a shopping cart. It is a letter, and you are the one who gets to write it.
Most online tools ask a single question, burial or cremation, and move straight to payment. That treats one of the most personal decisions of a life like a checkout page. This planner starts from a different idea: there is a goodbye worth having, and you know best what would make it feel like you, or like the person you are planning for.
Why start here
On your own time
No appointment and no one across a desk while you look for the words. Begin whenever you are ready.
Yours first
The plan starts as your own wishes. You decide later who else needs to see it.
Built to be shared
A plan only helps if the right people know it exists. Tell your family what you wrote and where to find it.
For yourself or someone else
Plan ahead for your own wishes, or sit down with a parent or spouse and help them put theirs in writing.
Ready when you are
Putting it in writing now spares someone you love a much harder day later.
