Why a Will Made Sense
Three adult children, sentimental items, no home
I met a woman in her early 60s who wasn't married and didn't own a home. What kept her up at night was how to pass meaningful items and modest savings to her three adult children without fights, and who would speak for her if she became ill.
A trust wasn't needed. I drafted a will with specific gifts, named a clear executor, and used a personal property memo for sentimental items. I also prepared a durable power of attorney, a health-care proxy with HIPAA releases, and final disposition instructions.
Result: Her children have clear instructions to follow and trusted people are empowered to act if she gets sick. She left with real peace of mind, confident it was done right.
