What this is

A short guide to the practical side of the first weeks after a death. Who to call, what to cancel, what can wait, and the order to do it in. Delivered on purchase. Written for PEI, with the general steps applying more widely.

What's included

  • The full guide, delivered on purchase
  • A handwritten Fare-Well card with your message, and a memorial birdseed ornament.
  • Your card and ornament are posted separately, so something still arrives at the door.

Why we chose this

The days after a death are administratively brutal and nobody hands you a list. Most people find out what they were supposed to do three weeks after the deadline passed.
