Parent’s Estate

Have you been dreading what to do with your aging parents? If you are like most people, the thought of what you are going to do should your parents become incapacitated or even pass away can be a very emotional task.

When people read the word estate, they may figure that means that they have millions of dollars to deal with. This is not totally true. Everyone of us must face that when we pass from this world it is not a free pass. There are funeral arrangements and burial considerations. Each of us has some items that we leave behind. If you do not make arrangements ahead of time, it can be a real mess.

Nobody likes to think about all of the costs and activities that go along with settling a parent’s estate in the midst of grief and heartache. My book Complete Guide to Organizing Your Records for Estate Planning: Step-by-step Instructions makes it easy to create a plan, and more specifically create an organizer ahead of time.

My book Complete Guide to Organizing Your Records for Estate Planning: Step-by-step Instructions  is not a replacement of a estate lawyer or expert. Instead, it helps you organize all your necessary records and documents you will need when the day comes that your parent’s can no longer take care of themselves or they pass away. Planning ahead takes some of the burden and streamlines the overwhelming process we all must face.

Complete Guide to Organizing Your Records for Estate Planning: Step-by-step Instructions  includes a CD ROM that contains all of the forms listed in the book. You can print these forms, fill them out, attach the necessary information and create a estate planning folio for each of your parents.

You will thank yourself later for planning ahead. My book Complete Guide to Organizing Your Records for Estate Planning: Step-by-step Instructions contains a day be day planner that you can follow during the first few days and weeks after your parent’s death. It makes your grief stricken time easier to handle, and alleviates the questions and concerns we all have when faced with this difficult time in our lives.
