If someone close to you has died, this site is here to help you find your footing.
There is no rush here. Nothing on this site is sold, and no one will contact you. Take what is useful and leave the rest.
The first days
A short checklist of what has to be decided soon, what can wait, who to call, and what not to sign yet. Made to be printed and kept.
Find a licensed funeral home
Every funeral establishment licensed by the Minnesota Department of Health, straight from the state's public records. No rankings, no ads, no paid placement.
Your rights when buying funeral services
A federal rule gives you the right to an itemized price list, to choose only what you want, and to decline what you do not. In plain English.
Paying for a funeral ahead of time
Minnesota law protects money paid on preneed funeral contracts. What the protections are and how cancellation works.
This site is built by a Minnesota attorney from public records and published law. Who runs it and why.
