With Iry Armstrong and Bob Fletcher of WHY IS A WILL SO IMPORTANT? It is a sobering fact to find out that if you do not leave a legally accep= table will, the province supplies a ready-made one which may or may out carry out your desires. An oral or handwritten will is not considered legal in many provinces and will not necessarily be considered in the handling of your estate. When a legal will has not been recorded, the possibilities of inequities are many. These inequities can often lead to additional expenses and heartaches to your survivors at a time when many other decisions must also be made. To make out a will with a lawyer's guidance assures you that you - and not the province will direct the distribution of your estate. IF you do not know a lawyer to help with your will, contact the nearest bar association, your bank or someone used to dealing with lawyers. Making o will is a difficult and emotional task, another reminder that death will indeed come to each of us. Drbwing up your will and mak- ing your pre -need funeral arrangements are two necessary steps which every adult ought to make. We suggest you do both now instead of when it's too late.
