Effort is underway to purchase a van for the American Legion Post 31 Color Guard.  The color guard performs at many military funerals every year and they need a van to travel together in.

 

McCutcheon & Hamner is raising money to support our Veterans.  We will write simple Wills for people who make a donation of $25.00 or more to the American Legion Post 31.

 

We will talk with you about what your options are in terms of a Will and what you can do and what other people commonly do.  We will be happy to talk with you about what your goals are and how we can help you accomplish them.  We won’t charge a dime other than your donation.  The Wills will be ready the week following at our office so that they may be signed, witnessed and notarized in accordance the law made for self-proving Wills.  Please call and schedule a time convenient for you to come in and make your Will.  We will do this through the end of April 2017.

 

A lot of married couples want reciprocal Wills that give everything to the other spouse and upon their death, to the children.  I like this type of Will because when a spouse dies the other spouse inherits everything and then upon the death of the last surviving spouse, the children get what their parents had.

 

Before you come in, think about who would execute your final wishes and as well as an alternate person and if there are minors involved a guardian and/or trustee.

 

One really valuable feature of a self-proving Will is the relief from the costs of a bond.  A bond for an estate can be very expensive and there is no need to impose that costs on your family.  If you don’t have a Will that is properly worded, they will have to buy a bond.

 

Buckle up and drive safely.
