To arrange a funeral

Most of us have no experience of arranging a funeral. To lose someone close to you is a life changing event. It is not unusual to feel anxious and confused when it comes to making decisions about the practical arrangements.

Good advice is not to hurry, take one step at a time. Everything does not have to be attended to at once. Below we have gathered some information to get you started.

In the broschure Hur gör jag nu? you can find more detailed information. (Only available in Swedish)

It can be useful to get together, to get different views and to talk about the wishes of the deceased and/or your own needs and wishes. Our task at the initial stage is to inform you of the different choices you have and to give you the advice you need.

Subjects to discuss in a meeting at our office:

• Funeral ceremony
• Music (what pieces and who will perform)
• Do you want a priest or a civil servant
• Time and place
• Announcements
• Cremation
• Reception
• Flowers
• Coffin and urn
• Burial place
• Headstone
• Estimated price
• Traditional Service - Includes all services which may be needed, including preparation and insertion of announcements, contacting ministers, organists and soloists, provision of floral arrangements, and services of staff.

After our meeting you will receive a detailed documentation where you get an overlook as to what has been taken care of and what remains.

Please feel free to call us, and when you do ask for English speaking personnel.
