If someone close to you has died, this site is here to help you find your footing.

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.

Caskets, urns, flowers, and printable packets

Buy merchandise online and ship it to the funeral home you choose. Or print paid PDF packets with scripts for the arrangement room. Affiliate links disclosed.

Minnesota's own price list rules

State law adds its own requirements on top of the federal rule: displayed prices, separate price lists, and an itemized signed statement.

Paying for a funeral ahead of time

Minnesota law protects money paid on preneed funeral contracts. What the protections are and how cancellation works.
