Looks like I missed this one when the OP started it. I do believe in heaven and think I will go there when I die.

For those who have thought about this eventuality, have you had any kind of talk with your family or friends about how then you want your funeral to be?

I chose "nothing".

I'm not religious, and of course I can't claim to know anything, but I don't have any beliefs that conflict with that idea.

Emptiness is an hard concept to imagine, as it means the lack of all things. If you think of it this way, "nothingness" also lacks itself, wich means it doesn't exist. It cannot be discerned. In brief, "emptiness" is just a big mind-f*** and you shouldn't even worry about it.
