My Parents Are Dead: What Now?

A piece of paper is posted onto a black and lime green checkerboard background with a pearly pushpin. On the piece of paper, pink and green handwritten text reads: 1994 is the last time the Federal Trade Commission updated its Funeral Rule. So much for industry regulation! At the bottom, on top of a pink box, is the logo for My Parents Are Dead: What Now? featuring a cartoon skull with heart eyes atop a lime green heptagon.

The FTC's Funeral Rule protects consumer rights when it comes to the death industry. Unfortunately, it hasn't been updated since 1994—not so great when it comes to rapidly changing technologies and the internet.

Black text on a pale gray background with a lime green bubble beneath the major statistic reads: 2023 National Funeral Directors Association Survey of Members. 45.9% of funeral directors plan to retire in the next five years. Reference: “Plan for Prosperity with Foresight and Johnson Consulting.” NFDA, https://nfda.org/news/in-the-news/nfda-news/id/8215/plan-for-prosperity-with-foresight-and-johnson-consulting. Accessed 11 Aug. 2025. deadparentswhatnow.com

Nearly half of funeral directors retiring in the next few years? Sounds terrifying—AND like a great opportunity to change the death industry for the better. What do you think?
