We do not know when a disaster strikes if we will be around to handle things. It may be someone we love who will be there trying to make sense of our files and piles. We have found a list prepared by Angela Dayton. She called it "Because I love you, I’ve prepared everything for you"
Things happen and disasters strike, life is not always smooth. The following list will be a blessing to those you love and maybe even to you if you have to leave your home in an emergency situation. If you have to help a family member put life back together you will be glad you took time to do all of these things.
Share it with the ones you love.
