What you should know...

In the following pages you will find information on estate planning and wills, as well as on what to do when someone you love dies.

Did you know that you should not put requests for funeral and burial arrangements in your will? Your will is usually read after your funeral. That information should be in a separate letter given to your executor at the time your will is made and with the understanding that it is burial arrangements. Your family should also know your wishes in this area.
