Karen Zinn, the founder of Heart2Soul.com, says, "We had such an amazing response from industry experts since we launched, we felt it warranted a dedicated section so consumers can understand all of their options. After all, it's an emotional time and there isn't a lot of time, or energy, to do the research. Whether planning a funeral or attending one, Heart2Soul can help."
From learning about funeral traditions and etiquette to creating a community for sharing funeral information, Heart2Soul is a comprehensive resource for everyone. "Having one place to go when someone dies—whether its someone close to us or a community member—just makes sense," says Zinn. "Most of us don't take the time to research and plan for end-of-life celebrations, so the information should be in one place."

Its world-renowned contributors provide a depth and range of information, designed to educate people who are planning a funeral, as well as those who support them.
