Die Like a Pro

The grief when we lose a loved one, no matter how or when it happens, is often all-consuming.

We spend months or years in heartache and shock, struggling to navigate this world without them: a life that's both hauntingly familiar, and wholly unlike anything we've experienced before.

Complicating this grief process is the fact so many unknowns remain.

What bills did our loved one have on autopay, and from which accounts?

Should we close their social media pages? How do we even do that?

What happens to their pets, or that treasured coin collection in their attic?

The fact is, legal documents like wills only go so far in giving answers. Sure, we know they'd have preferred a traditional funeral, but do we know what music they wanted played at the service? What poems were special to them?

Alternatively, do we know they wanted a funeral, versus a celebration of life, or ash ceremony?

While the large details are often laid out neatly for uswho gets the house, what happens to the investment accountsit's those smaller facets that trip us up.

And it's these details, more than anything, that people forget to include in their post-death plans.

This brief but comprehensive guide covers far more than the grieving process itself. It delves into the importance of planning for our own deaths, unpleasant as that thought may be, so that we can leave our loved ones with thorough, detailed road maps to navigate their loss.
