The Best Estate Plan
Tuesday, July 15th, from 6:30-7:30 in the first floor meeting room B

Remember the days of sitting around the kitchen table for a family meeting? Matters of concern were discussed. Regardless of income, family communicated with each other. Have you had the kitchen table meeting regarding your estate plan? Do your children know where your key legal documents are? Do they know who the agent is under your Durable Power of Attorney? Do they know who your attorney is? Have they met them? The Best Estate Plan is one that is communicated to your family. It should not be left to the children to sort out who should make financial decisions or healthcare decisions if you need help in the future. Learn how to gain the opportunity to share your value system with your children, and invite your children to ask about your plan and reconcile difference or misunderstandings that may exist.

Registration is requested. Please stop by the Adult Services Reference Desk on the second floor or call (815) 485-2605, Ext. 123.
