To My Family and Friends
I am aware of the emotional upset one may experience at a time such as this. So that I may spare you any additional unrest, I have prepared this document to help you with the planning and decision-making that must be done.
Within these pages I have outlined my final wishes. I have specified the arrangements that should be made and provided a list of those who should be informed of my passing.
I have also provided a detailed list of all legal and financial information that will be needed when settling my estate. I hope this somewhat lessens the difficulties you may face upon my passing.
