I usually lurk but I learned a very important lesson in life to give a heads up to others. If you love anyone in the world, please take a few minutes and get a will done. You have no idea the trouble you are saving your remaining loved ones.
My grandfather, 92 at the time of passing, went into quick decline and died in less than a 2-week span. He left a bank account with 16k and NO WILL filed or written in his home. This situation has torn our family apart.
Since he died without a will we had no access to his funds to pay for the remaining costs. We were left paying for the funeral, casket, burial service, religious figure to be present, lunch for guests. Other small costs like removing his furniture from his apartment we're required. We also all had to get together to pay the remaining two months of his car lease AND 10 months of his rent.
This situation gets really heated when 3 remaining family members have to negotiate and fight to split major costs.
So if you love ANYONE please take the time to go to a bank and get the will notarized, a lawyer, or do it in an online service. you have no idea the stress, tears, and potential bond of your family your saving.
