"No your not the only one, true I am only 28 so got a while before I have to think about all that I hope but you never do know " No you don’t. It must be a worry for some families when they haven’t got a spare £4K to spend on a funeral. Think I need to get some life instance x | |||

"Hi Mrs Heels, My Mum had a folder on her computer with her wishes. She spoke to me now and then about her desires, but my siblings never looked at the folder, nor spoke to her about it as they couldn't bring themselves to. If it worries you, make your feelings known. At the very least, speak to your husband about it. My Mum knew the music that she wanted too. You never know what will happen or when; Hopefully not too soon, but both my wife and I have had accidents that could have easily gone the wrong way! By the way, you do look rather sexy. Paul" Thank you Paul and sorry about your mum xx | |||

"I have life insurance with work which is 10 Time my annual salary. This ensures I will get a decent send off As a lot of my vanilla friends are from football I have said they can all come in football shirts to my funeral. Songs take me home country road by John Denver. Angels by Robbie. I want to be buried rather than cremated. I want my own headstone with something witty on it " Everyone was in blues shirts at my brothers and we play Keep right on too! | |||

"No your not the only one, true I am only 28 so got a while before I have to think about all that I hope but you never do know " Not wishing to make things any more morbid but we all need to think about it whatever our age. Just over a year ago my youngest brother fell down the stairs, broke his neck, stone dead! He was 32. Our family & friends have known for years what we do & don't want. We should all talk about death, it's the only thing guaranteed in this life, we should make it as easy as possible for the people we leave behind. Happy Thursday everyone! S | |||

"I'm mostly sorted, life insurance, mortgage insurance etc, donor card registered, so no money or choice probs. Just the people left behind to arrange the paperwork & the afterparty " There's an awful lot of arranging to do after someone dies. It's exhausting. | |||

"My 18 year old niece said to me yesterday ‘Auntie A, before you die will you write down what words you would speak about me at my funeral please? You’ve done fantastic at everyone else’s and I don’t want to be missed out!’ I think there’s a compliment there but one I never thought I’d hear! Saying that, I never thought I’d be planning four funerals as quickly as I did. My husband died last year with no will, no life insurance, nothing in place...this lack of planning really did make everything so much more difficult for me, so from experience, if you’re in a position to put plans in place, do so...those you love and leave behind will appreciate it, x" Oh dear, that must have been terribly sad for you. | |||

"I know it’s going to happen to us all one day but when my mum died she had no wishes in place so we thought we do what we thought she would like. When my brother died last year his was planned out, he put money aside for the funeral, the wake and knew exactly where he wanted his money to go to. I’m on my mid 40s and not ill but I’ve nothing in place, no life insurance (no children) I feel very disorganised about it all. Husband got life insurance etc and knows exactly what funeral he wants. Am I the only one with my head in the sand. If I don’t plan anything I’ll won’t have to think about it. " I have a current will (god forbid the old one would be used, leaving everything to my ex) and everyone important in my life knows my wishes for organ donation, cremation, etc. I don't have my accounts written down in one place though, and have bits scattered all over; that's on my to do list. I also need to write down my wishes in case I am unable to make decisions for my care at any point. I know the people closest in my life well enough to be assured they'd make the best choices, if they can, but need to go about doing it legally. | |||

I suspect I'm about to be made redundant in the next month and will be sort all that sort of stuff if I am. Got life insurance sorted and had conversation re will with solicitor just need to finalise it and discuss with ex. | |||

"Trying to locate a grave at the moment which was me grandads who died in the 60s. Sadly no headstone but there is another plot which my Nan brought by lost the paperwork. I’d ideally like to put my nans, mums and my brothers ashes in the plot. Help x" If you know the funeral site, just call the cemetery and ask. I done that went to the family plot in the United States. Said my great grandmother and father were likely buried in the same plot. Was given list of them and three kids. Some may charge you a small fee | |||
