About FuneralPlanningInfo.com
Clear, compassionate guidance for end-of-life planning—created by people who have experienced it personally and professionally.
Created by a licensed funeral professional, a former licensed minister trained in Christian ministry, and a family committed to compassionate end-of-life planning.
Why We Created FuneralPlanningInfo.com
FuneralPlanningInfo.com was created because we have seen firsthand how overwhelming end-of-life decisions can be when there is no plan in place.
Matthew has worked inside the funeral industry, supporting families as they navigate end-of-life arrangements during some of the most emotional moments of their lives. He has seen how often families arrive without a plan and are forced to make major financial and personal decisions quickly, while carrying deep grief.
Robb lost his mother at a young age and was left to make funeral arrangements while grieving and unprepared. He didn’t know what questions to ask, what choices truly mattered, or how to tell the difference between what was necessary and what was being sold.
Maureen approaches this work from the perspective of planning and protection. As a parent and partner, her focus is reducing stress, confusion, and uncertainty for loved ones by encouraging thoughtful preparation and clear conversations before a crisis occurs.
Together, these experiences shaped a shared mission:
To make end-of-life planning calmer, clearer, and more compassionate for every family that needs guidance.
