Story time. I am 42, have a 22 year old son from when I was a teenager, and am now married for 10 years and have two children 9, 4. I own a business and own a house. I knew a will was imprtant and was going to get one.... for years.

My Dad is remarried for 22 years and his Wife has 4 daughters. The oldest daughter lost the youngest of their two children to a heart issue at 12 years old. His older brother was 26 and was on his way to work early one morning last October from Grande Cache to Grande Prairie and died in a head on collision. He had a wife and 3 children under 5. Thankfully he had some insurance through work and had told his mom where his will was just a few days before as they had gone and finalized it.

My Dad was supposed to come and watch my children so my wife and I could celebrate our 10th anniversary this year and he refused until I got my will done. I'm very glad he did.
