A Request for After My Passing
To my loved ones, friends, and anyone who may be contacted in the event of my death,
One day, each of us will face death. Speaking about it may be uncomfortable, but decisions will still need to be made. Rather than asking you to make these decisions for me, I am stating my wishes clearly in this letter.
After considering the choices of how my body should be cared for after my passing, I have decided that I wish to be buried.
Thank you in advance for honoring my request, and caring for my body with respect when I no longer can.

The following are my wishes for other aspects of my funeral and burial. (Feel free to include any preferences you have, such as which cemetery or funeral home you want to use, who you want to speak at the funeral, who you want informed, etc.)
