Caring for a parent is one of the most loving thin Caring for a parent is one of the most loving things you can do, but it can also be one of the hardest. 💙

Ms. Ethel’s story is one I’ll never forget. Af Ms. Ethel’s story is one I’ll never forget. After a life marked by both profound loss and unwavering faith, she came to me with a simple but powerful goal — to care for her grandchildren and give back to the church community that had carried her through the hardest times.

Together, we created an estate plan that honored her family and ensured her church of 50 years would continue to feel her love and support for generations to come.

Stories like Ms. Ethel’s remind me why estate planning isn’t just about legal documents — it’s about legacies, gratitude, and love.
