Not just us "oldsters" should have wills; when my son died last year, he was only 27, but he had no will; it made everything twice as hard for us regarding sale of his car, etc.

Since then I have encouraged ALL my stepchildren and my niece and my nephew to write out a will, detailing who they want their things to go to in case something should happen.

And this is ESPECIALLY important for parents of children under 18; specify WHO gets them!!!!

Howlin, thanks for sharing. None of us ever think about outliving our children, and none of us should have to. God Bless You.

Thanks for reminding everyone about who should be the guardians of minor children. That is very important. I have seen families fight in court to control the children so they could control the money....very bad situation. Don't leave it up to a Judge to decide.
