Each of us is creating our legacy at every stage of life. You can complete an ethical will or personal legacy letter at any time. Most often, people choose to create them when they are moving from one stage of life to the next. Among the opportune times and life stages are:
- Middle age and beyond -- when you have lived experiences you'd like to be remembered and passed on.
- End-of-Life -- when you are preparing to leave your loved ones for the last time.
- Growing families -- when you want to teach important values to your children.
- Expectant and new parents -- when you are building a framework to guide your child-rearing.
- Betrothed couples -- when you are sharing values for your life together.
No matter what the time of your life, getting started can be a challenge. You may want to begin by reading about ethical wills, sharing ideas about life legacies with friends, or by contacting us about classes and individual help to create your "gift of a lifetime".
