August 2018 Newsletter
Digital Dying Robot Morticians

The all-new Digital Dying offers a fresh take on the trends and issues that are shaping the funeral industry.

If you haven’t looked at our blog, Digital Dying, in a while, you are in for a treat. It’s got an all-new look and a fresh focus. We’ll still bring you our unique perspective on funeral customs past and present, but we’ll also be taking a more vibrant look forward by profiling topics relating to Funerals of the Future and the people that are shaping the direction of the industry. 

Going forward, Digital Dying will dive deeper into topics relating to how the funeral industry is changing, what consumers want when it comes to celebrating the end of life, and how attitudes toward death and dying are changing.

Funeralwise continues to find new ways to help people make the difficult decisions that come with end of life. Our goal is to help you prepare for the inevitable, celebrate life, and remember those who have gone before us.

MAKING THE RIGHT FUNERAL ATTIRE CHOICES

Since most of us don’t attend funerals often (thank goodness), it can be difficult to decide exactly what to wear. Luckily, we’ve got you covered. Our What to Wear to a Funeral page has lots of good information for you to use or share with someone who might need advice on how to dress for a funeral or memorial service.

We’ve also got a brand new article in our forums that takes a little different approach to the topic with tips on what NOT to wear to a funeral.
