It would startle me too if one of my friends did that because it sounds like a plan for now, not in the future. As Tishie said, they just care. 
Personally, I'd rather not have a friend do that to me. I would prefer my friend decide what it is they would like me to have. Whatever is given to me, regardless of monetary value, would have more meaning because a "piece" of my friend would be included with the object. 
Also, if you open it up to your friends you run the risk of them squabbling over your stuff. If my friends started squabbling over my stuff before I was even gone, I'd be a little ticked at them. They would appear more like grave robbers than friends. 
Your heart was in the right place though. Sorry it backfired on you.
