I don't know why it's so hard to get around to making these preparations, but Colleen did a great job of pulling it all together. Sometimes husbands are so busy loving their families in other ways with providing a paycheck, coaching, teaching Sunday School, Scouts, pastoring and giving of their time that these issues get swept aside. So let's keep on urging our loved ones to get this all nailed down.

I did most of the above. He now has Parkinsons with dementia and I have taken care of much of the above. Its not that he wasn't a good man and father...he just didn't know put the family first.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382629264175127167.post-5285158928894630852014-01-29T18:15:16.223-05:002014-01-29T18:15:16.223-05:00I just forwarded this email to my fellow office wo...I just forwarded this email to my fellow office wokers-I have already recived 3 hearty "Thank you's!"Mary T,noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3382629264175127167.post-3024896808148061112014-01-29T14:20:57.607-05:002014-01-29T14:20:57.607-05:00I am so thankful that my husband made me keep up o...I am so thankful that my husband made me keep up our life ins. policy. Many times we didn't pay a lot of bills because we weren't able too but he MADE me always pay our life insurance policy. It was one of the wisest decisions of our wonderful marriage. So very thankful it was there.<br />and -<br />I go to church with a widow senior lady in her early 80's and she told me that every time she leaves home for half a day or longer she cleans her house and leaves out instructions of how her funeral arrangements are to be made and where all of her important papers are.

This morning, I had actually thought that when couples marry.and if they say...'till death us do part' it should be shouted out or something. When we cleared my husband's studio out, my kids admitted they were hoping to find 'love letters' to them from their dad. When talking to people in government departments - etc., I did tell folk to ensure all passwords etc. are known to each other. Both men and women were glad of the advice.
