About Me
My name is Chris. Welcome to my funeral blog. Not many people like to think about death, but when a loved one passes away, it is time to face up to things. The biggest job is organising the funeral. When my mother passed away, it was down to me to organise the funeral. I was overcome with grief so I found it very difficult to think about the type of funeral my mother would have wanted. I got in touch with a fantastic funeral home who helped me to plan everything. I decided to start this blog to offer advice to others who are planning a funeral.
