Strange But True

* Folks who enjoy collecting ties are known as grabatologists.

* Cinderella’s shoes were made of fur, not glass, in the tale’s original version.

STEPS INVOLVED WITH ESTATE PLANNING

A will is an important component of estate planning. Without clearly and legally spelling out your wishes, there is no guarantee that those wishes will be honored. It will be up to a state or province to make potentially lifealtering decisions that can impact your surviving family members, and the only way to ensure your wishes will be carried out is to put them into a will. Although men and women can write their own wills, many people prefer to seek the assistance of an attorney, who can make sure all necessary details are included in the will.
