The only aspect of life more certain than death? The bureaucratic nightmare that accompanies it. In Late To Your Own Funeral, Rachel Donnelly offers an effective and entertaining guide out of estate settlement purgatory."Rachel's irreverent humor and no-nonsense guidance make legacy planning not just manageable but oddly enjoyable." - Matt Paxton, author of Keep the Memories, Lose the Stuff and television host of HoardersNearly 70% of Americans have no estate plan, leaving their loved ones to face a maze of administrative challenges in their darkest hours. From planning funeral arrangements to the seemingly impossible task of canceling cable service, the logistics of loss often compound grief in unexpected ways.After losing several family members in quick succession, Donnelly realized that navigating grief is hard enough without the added burden of managing an estate. What mourners need most, she learned, isn't another casserole, but a guide through death's bureaucracy. Now, as an after loss and legacy planning consultant, she serves as a "wedding coordinator-but for death," helping others navigate the administrative maze of estate settlement.Through a blend of practical insight and unflinching honesty, Donnelly offers a roadmap for both the living and those thrust into the role of executor. Late To Your Own Funeral helps readers face the conversations everyone else avoids, giving loved ones an invaluable gift: the ability to mourn without drowning in paperwork.This publication contains the opinions and ideas of its author.
