Home Vigil and Funeral Education

Home Vigil Work

Home vigils and client-directed care of the dead are a central part of our work. We believe you know what’s best for you when it comes to caring for the dead, and we encourage clients to do just that. We help you coordinate and direct home vigils and personalized rituals before, during, or after death.


In-Home Care of the Deceased

We also believe that being present with the dying and the dead is a transformative experience that everyone should be encouraged to participate in. We can provide detailed education and guidance to help you care for your loved one’s body. And we provide the peace of mind that comes from working with licensed morticians as your guides.

Death is Not an Emergency

Death is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and be present with the profound.

The NHFA Guidebook

The National Home Funeral Alliance has created and published a very easy-to-use guidebook, rich with information to help you prepare to care for someone who has died. It’s available to download for free or on a pay-what-you-can basis. Your donation helps the NHFA continue their work of educating the public about their options for caring for their dead.
