Need to plan a funeral or cremation, but don't know where to start?

The Funeral Consumers Alliance offers consumer friendly tips including “What you need to know before you go.” FCA is “the only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting a consumer's right to choose a meaningful, dignified, affordable funeral. We provide education and advocacy to consumers nationwide and are not affiliated with the funeral industry. This website is full of information and advice to help you plan ahead.”

For the environmental activist’s funeral consult How to Go Green: Funerals.

Don't worry about the deceased’s debts; they go to the grave unless someone co-signed. BUT don't be surprised to get calls from debt collectors who try to convince relatives that they owe the debts.

For details read The New York Times article, You’re dead? That won’t stop the debt collector.

And, never fear, there are plenty of recipes for funeral potatoes online.
