APPOINTING
EXPERIENCED
EXECUTORS
To appoint friends as executors of your
estate may prove an injustice to them,
as well as to your heirs, These friends
may acquire their first experience as
executors in handling your estate, First
experiences are often costly.
Acting as your executor and trustee,
The Grey and Briice Trust and Savings.
Company will bring to your estate the
knowledge, experience and facilities
necessary for its careful and efficient
administration—at no greater cost than
the private executor, who may himself
die before his duties are completed.
