A brief note from Dr. Jerry Kieschnick, who was here at Grace September 17: “Much information about planned giving was shared during our Bible class and worship time together a few weeks ago. I’m available to answer questions in your mind about writing a will, maximizing an IRA or other retirement plan, using stocks or real estate to create a lifetime income and future charitable gift, and other related topics. Feel free to call 512.578.6035 or email GBJK@LegacyDeo.org. I’d be happy help.”
