If you are reading this, there’s a good chance you’re among the millions of Americans who have been avoiding an important to-do…but you are not alone.
Last year, a survey conducted by American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) revealed that only 51 percent of adults aged 50 and older have a legal will.
Have you ever thought about writing a will as an act of hope, love, and lasting impact?
August is National Make-a-Will Month, so I am writing to encourage my fellow community members to take advantage of this opportunity to create or update their wills.
