Preplan your funeral

My Life, My Farewell booklet

The ‘My Life, My Farewell’ booklet has been developed through the wide collective experience of members of the Funeral Directors’ Association of New Zealand.

The booklet enables you to:

1. Record your personal information as required by the Registrar-General of Births, Deaths and Marriages. Having these details pre-filled will be a great help to those finalising your funeral arrangements.
   
   
2. Record the details of those who should be notified of your death - friends, clubs, associations, service providers, professionals etc.
   
   
3. Record your preferences for your funeral arrangements, including things you might not want. There are prompts to assist you and there is space at the end for any other special instructions you may have.

You can download this booklet here or contact your local funeral director for a hard copy.
