The most loving gift a person

before a disaster or medical emergency. To assist in

following list. The information and documents you should
have prepared:
- All bank accounts, account
numbers and types of accounts and the location of
banks.
- Insurance Company, policy
number, beneficiary as stated on the policies and
type of insurance (health, life, long term care,
automobile, etc).
- Deed and titles to ALL
property.
- Loan/lien information, who
holds them and if there are any death provisions.
- Social Security and
Medicare numbers.
- Military history,
affiliations and papers (including discharge
papers).
- Up-to-date will in a safe
place (inform family where the Will is located).
