as "fun"as you could get with a funeral director identity. You're dealing with the family of someone who has passed away, and You have to be conscious of that.
It's probably going to end up being pretty straight forward.

Uhmmm... I'd keep it happy, bringing doom and gloom to an already dark event doesn't make sense...

I would just make everything extremely tasteful. Probably steal some of the design ideas from the guy's business cards in "American Psycho."

Yeah. I mean... putting some sort of marketing spin on the business of death? I don't think it's necessary....
People really want to feel comfortable and secure when they engage with a funeral director. They want to know that their dearly departed are going to be given the utmost respect as well as accommodating their living family members. Some words to key in on would be Honor, Reputation and Respect.

There was a billboard campaign, probably still ongoing, here in LA for a cemetery. I didn't really care for it, the first time I saw it I didn't even get it. But I guess they were trying for humor by juxtaposing an image of a person, a line of copy that obviously didn't fit with that person and then the tagline 'don't have someone elses funeral'
Here is the only image I could find online:
Here is a story about the campaign:
