Planning ahead doesn't have to be overwhelming. Here are five things to think about as you get started:

1. What type of service feels right to you?

2. Where do you want your final resting place to be?

3. How do you want to be remembered?

4. Who do you want involved in the planning?

5. Does your family know your wishes?

You don't have to figure it all out today. But starting the conversation is the most important step.
