Funeral Flashcards
Preface:
If I die unexpectedly, give me any funeral type you want.
If I live to 80, I will probably have come out of the closet and be open to everyone on my beliefs.
I wish to be cremated and remains given to whomever wants them. The leftover remains just scatter in the wild in a pretty place. No markers are necessary.
Rent a casket like Amanda did for Turk. Please don’t waste thousands of dollars on a casket nobody will ever see again. Don’t buy a vault either, waste of money.

Funeral non religious:
A humanist funeral is a non-religious ceremony that is both a celebration of your loved one’s life and an honourable farewell. It pays tribute to your loved one without religious connotations and recognizes the grief of death, whilst also celebrating the life and heritage of a loved one.
Google it and you can see samples of songs, poems, readings and summaries of the deceased’ life and accomplishments.
I will leave you a list of my accomplishments, favorite quotes and magnificent moments in my life.
Also please come up with a couple of interesting or funny stories we experienced. Friends and relatives can share some memories of me.
A funeral celebrant is a qualified person who officiates funeral services by planning and overseeing funeral proceedings. Funeral celebrants conduct non-religious, semi-religious and spiritual funeral services. Many celebrants aim for the funeral service to be a ‘celebration of life’ that honours the person’s memory.
My trust:
I am hoping we get our trust formally completed so there is no question of what I wish to bequeath to you and my children and grandchildren.
In the event I die before we form a trust, these are my wishes as of right now. They will change and be refined as time goes by.
To my children, give half of my stash divided equally. The other half of stash goes to you, Geri.
To Geri, goes everything else that we own together. ie, house, all belongings, money and possessions.
In the event I outlive Geri, I will write these on another card.
This card reserved to follow up by me in the event Geri passes first.
