Life's Last Needs

Life’s Last Needs is a comprehensive online resource providing information on death, dying, and funeral preparation.

The research team has carefully assembled the best available selection of articles pertaining to the legal, financial, and civil challenges confronting those who have lost a loved one. This information is designed to simplify these issues, minimizing the stress of an already demanding circumstance. Our goal is to build a mutually supportive community within which you can share your story, ask difficult questions, and discover the support of others who have experienced loss.

We also provide a directory of related services, listing local professionals who provide the entire range of necessary services.

Our motivation to develop this online community began when a client noted the lack of comprehensive legal and funeral information for her mother recently diagnosed with terminal cancer. When her greatest concern was to spend the little time remaining with her mother, she felt overwhelmed by questions to which she couldn’t find answers.
