hestiaHow a family space helps
Families often have to find papers and tell relatives. They compare funeral homes and ask about prices. They plan the service and try to remember what was said on calls. A family space keeps all of this together.
Online funeral planning
One private place for your family to plan.
When everything happens at once, it helps to have one calm place for it all. Hestia keeps your tasks, papers and the people helping you together. It also keeps the prices you’ve been given. It is free.
What Hestia is not
Hestia is not a funeral home, cemetery or crematory. A crematory is where cremation is done. Hestia is not a go-between that sells services for others. It does not take the place of licensed experts. It is a family space to keep your choices in order and help you ask better questions.
Tasks
Track the next steps
Keep the jobs that need doing now where everyone can see them. This includes death certificates, the obituary and calls to funeral homes. It also includes who does what, service plans, travel, the gathering after and tasks after the funeral.
Family
Invite the people helping
You will have fewer group texts to sort through and fewer repeat questions. Everyone can see what has already been decided.
Businesses
Save and compare options
Keep a private list of funeral homes, cremation services, florists and cemeteries. Add places to hold a service, people who lead services and grief support.
You need an account to look through and save businesses. This keeps your family’s notes and requests inside your private family space.
Keep this somewhere your family can find it
A free family space keeps your wishes, papers and choices in one place. Then the people you leave behind will not have to guess.
