About Ducks in a Row

How often have you said to yourselves, “I really need to get my affairs in order” as you keep procrastinating? Did you know that it takes upward of two years to settle an estate without a will? Without an Advance Directive, your family members will be at a loss to make medical decisions, maybe not the ones you would have chosen. Does your family know your passwords/codes to your online accounts, phone, access to your safety deposit box? Do you have difficulty having a family discussion about these issues?

Swarthmore Seniors is offering a series of three sessions that focus on how you can put your affairs in order and be able to talk to your family about your decisions. Barbara Sorin will facilitate; Barbara has had extensive experience helping families as hospital chaplain, counselor, and facilitator of grief and caregiver support groups
