I agree in part, but I think that if you are setting up such a message, it's important that you inform your friends and family of the message while you are still alive, and probably you should also tell them that the message might end up getting sent while you are still alive because you forgot or for some other reason didn't get around to confirming that you are alive still in time.
Right -- the message is customizable, and after you save your contacts, it prompts you with a message you can text them to let them know about the service.
