Consider options for leaving a legacy and establishing your end-of-life preferences to support your family. You can hire legacy writers to create a book for your family or capture your own memories in a way that suits you best. Options include:

• Write your own obituary or make special gifts of your possessions.

• Outline funeral arrangements from burial information to style of services.

• Compile pictures into an online or physical album.

• Record messages you want your loved ones to keep for the future.

• Write letters to your loved ones.

• Compile a collection of your favorite recipes.

• Ask/hire someone to create a blanket made from your favorite clothes.

• Write cards or buy gifts for a future birthday or special occasion.

• Create a poem or a song specifically for your loved one(s).

• Ask someone for help making a video montage (could include your best

advice, memories and stories).
