Cindy,
Congratulations on your trust! Brenda and I have had one in place for our family for about fifteen years now. While I agree no one wants to think about the inevitable, it will happen. I have seen many go from my work in the fire/ems field, and it is sad to here how many local citizens and friends or family have paid thousands to the government. You probablly will not have to many problems with the box version of trust documents, but proceed carefully. I used two different trust lawyers that cost more then a few thousand, but my father-in-law was a little sceptable after my two years of convincing him he needed one. He was paying anyway. It is very comforting to know that somethings will not be a burden in an already sorrowful time.

Sincerely,
Ron Strowger
