Notes
This book is necessary for all of us during these uncertain times. The topics in the book are hard to bring up but are important topics to discuss. Each chapter has a couple of quotes and sample scenarios along with a checklist. The questionnaires are important and definitely provides help and guidance to the reader. During the COVID-19 pandemic it has become important for my family to organize our final wishes and arrangements, so the responsibility does not fall on our children. The checklist of essential information and documents is complete and very handy to gather everything into one place. I highly recommend this book to everyone to relieve your families from any burdens.
