funeral planning
Arranging final rites
Funeral planning is the process of arranging details for a burial or memorial service, either in advance of one's own death or after someone has died.
It typically involves selecting a funeral home, choosing burial or cremation, picking a casket or urn, and organizing the ceremony.
My parents did their funeral planning years ago to spare us the decisions.
