Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about funeral planning, Death Wishes, Legacy Letters and Life Stuff products.

What's included in the Death Wishes Funeral Planner?

The Death Wishes Funeral Planner is a printable PDF workbook that guides you through documenting your funeral wishes, service preferences, personal details, and practical information your family will need. It covers everything from burial or cremation preferences to music, readings, account details, and space for personal reflections. Printed versiom also on the way.

How is the workbook delivered after purchase?

Once your purchase is complete you'll receive access to a downloadable PDF file via the thank you page. You'll also receive a follow-up email with your download link as a backup.

Can I print the workbook more than once?

Yes. Once purchased the file is yours to print as many times as you like. If your wishes change over time, simply print a fresh copy and start again.

What's the difference between Death Wishes and Legacy Letters?

Death Wishes is a practical planning tool — it documents your funeral wishes, service preferences, and the information your family will need to manage things when the time comes. Legacy Letters is personal — it's a guided template collection for writing letters to the people you love. They complement each other but serve different purposes.

Do I need both products?

Not necessarily. If you're primarily focused on getting your practical wishes documented, Death Wishes is the place to start. If you want to leave something personal and meaningful for the people you love, Legacy Letters is for you. Many people find value in both — which is why we offer a bundle at a discounted price.

Is this workbook suitable for someone who is seriously ill?

Yes. The workbook is designed to be completed at your own pace, in whatever order feels right. There's no pressure to complete everything at once. If you or someone you love is navigating a serious illness, this workbook can bring real clarity and relief to an otherwise overwhelming situation.

How do I start the conversation with my parents about funeral planning?

The workbook itself can be a useful conversation starter — giving it as a gift or sitting down to complete it together removes the awkwardness of raising the topic directly. Focus on the practical angle: "I just want to make sure we know what you'd want, so we don't have to guess." Most people feel relieved once the conversation has started.

What if my wishes change — can I update the workbook?

Yes. Simply print a fresh copy and complete it again. We recommend revisiting your wishes every few years or after a significant life event.

Does completing this replace the need for a Will?

No. The Death Wishes Funeral Planner is not a legal document and does not replace a Will. We strongly recommend everyone have a valid Will in place. The workbook is a companion to your legal documents — it captures the personal details and wishes that a Will typically doesn't cover.

Is Life Stuff affiliated with any funeral home or provider?

No. Plan Well Co is completely independent. We have no affiliation with any funeral home, provider, or legal service. Our products are designed to help you plan on your own terms, without being locked into any provider.
