Making last wishes & funeral planning fun
Who thought we could have fun planning our own funeral or last wishes?
Me!
Absolutely a great way to get your last wishes and funeral wishes recorded so that you don’t have to worry about it, and… so your loved ones don’t have to guess at and stress over your wishes when you die. Whether you want this for yourself or if you are interested in hosting your own gathering to do this with friends, you’ve come to the right place!

Move Over Tupperware and say hello to the home death planning or Funeral Planning Party—a place to have a little fun and open up with others about a particularly important event in your life—your death. These are private parties with just you and your besties. Use the download to get free ideas on hosting your own party.
The brainchild of Sheila Burke, an End-of-Life Doula in Northeast Ohio. Sheila became a death doula after the death of her husband Shane in 2020. “I had that calling everyone talks about. I was called to advocate for the dying, to educate, and to be this, sort of, spiritual sherpa.” A few years ago, Sheila created the Exit Plan© which is a series of prompts to help terminally ill folks answer questions about what exactly their final wishes are. It is included in Death Over Dinner, her educational booklet on the importance of discussing our inevitable demise.
While the booklet is more of a serious nature, planning funerals with your friends is more of a light-hearted way to get everyone talking about a subject that oftentimes is hard to address. If you are healthy and want to do something very different, this is a great idea for you and your friends or family.
If you have a terminal illness, have a great sense of humor, and would like to have a fun, quirky living funeral, you should also check this out and tailor it to your needs.
