The mission is big. Changing how people view death can seem daunting. But our mission remains unchanged - educating on community, home funeral rights, and bringing death talks to common spaces and kitchen tables.

And we can't do that without YOU. Like, comment, and share to help us spread the word.

Death doesn't have to be serious. Your legacy doesn't have to be sadness. Leave them wondering. Hire a mysterious stranger to attend your wake. Hide a locked box under the stairs. They sky is the limit!

May whatever waves you are fighting to swim through today be less powerful. Not only does grief rise and fall, but so does our daily struggles with stress, life, and everything we encounter as we go on.

You're loved. You're worthy. You got this.

Death tucks us all in. What a wonderful concept of our beloved dead sleeping soundly in the next room - under a blanket or shrouded with love, listening to us laugh in the next room, telling stories of their life, and sharing so much love. ❤️

Don't wait until death - give the flowers now. There is plenty of time for beautiful flowers during a home funeral, but don't let that be first flowers they receive.

We focus a lot on love continuing past death - but don't wait. Love now. ❤️

Death can occur suddenly - but home funerals give us time. Space. Stillness. Death is not a medical event, it is a human event. Once it occurs, there is no need to rush. Nothing else needs to be sudden.

You still have time to say the words. Home funerals make space for you to talk. To whisper. To confide. To finish everything you needed to say.

Linger in the doorway after death. Forget your scarf as the shroud is wrapped. Home funerals give more time.

Love doesn't end at death. We continue to love past the end of life; that's exactly what a home funeral celebrates.

Community gives us the chance to hold space for our loved ones and our beloved dead. Home funerals and taking time allows us space to grieve, to love, to hug, to cry, to sing, to simply: be.

The power of writing your own final chapter - or having your loved ones fulfill telling the world who you are with full hearts. Home funerals offer laughter, community, and yes: exploding into glitter and bats.

Grief is so hard. As we move into autumn and winter - grief can be harder as the seasons change, as days get shorter, and the holidays come and go.

Remember, you are never alone. You are loved. Your community is here.

Why stop at death? As Halloween creeps up on us and the decor makes its way into our lives take a moment to reflect on why it is only "love you to death" and not past death.

Home funerals are a beautiful way to keep the love going. ❤️

Closing the eyes is often the first act of care after death—quiet, sacred, human.
You don’t need permission. Just presence.

Closing the mouth after death helps restore natural dignity to the face, and its easier than you may think. Using a scarf, ribbon, or cloth gently tied under the chin, this simple step supports the jaw and soft tissues as the body relaxes. #death #dying #labubu #labuburial #homecare #eol #endoflife
