Check out the original post here: https://lnkd.in/dwDFPSrr **Navigating End-of-Life Care: What Happens When Someone Dies Without Family Support?** When someone passes away without family, understanding the responsibilities and processes involved is crucial. In the UK, various systems are in place to ensure that these individuals are treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. **Who Takes Charge?** Typically, the local authority or the hospital where the person died takes on the responsibility of arranging the funeral. This involvement ensures that a respectful service is held, including a basic coffin and a simple ceremony, whether the choice is burial or cremation. But what happens if there are no assets to cover these costs? They may apply for a funeral payment from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to help with expenses, ensuring that everyone receives a dignified farewell irrespective of their financial state. **Finding Next of Kin** Efforts are often made to locate any possible relatives or acquaintances who might provide insights into the deceased's preferences for their funeral arrangements. However, if no one is found, the responsibility solely lies with the local authority or hospital. **Can Anyone Attend the Funeral?** Yes, funerals under these circumstances are not exclusive. While the number of attendees might be limited due to venue restrictions, the service is open for anyone wishing to pay their respects. **Handling the Estate** Without direct heirs, the deceased's estate is typically managed by the local authority or hospital. This process could involve selling possessions to cover funeral costs, with any remainder potentially being donated to charities or reverted to the state. Dealing with such situations without familial support can seem daunting. Therefore, seeking guidance from professionals like funeral directors is advisable to navigate this sensitive process smoothly. 🕊 In these times of need, understanding and compassion are paramount. Have you ever wondered about the support available in such scenarios? We’re available 24/7 to help you make arrangements during this difficult time.

Last Will & Testament Going to touch on a subject that makes many people uncomfortable - making your last Will and Testament. Whether you want to admit it or not, we all die and unless you have a plan, you better believe the smelly stuff will hit the fan after you're gone. The wife and I drew up our first Last Will & Testament in our 30's. Life has taken several turns since then, so we have revised it multiple times over the years. Can only speak from our experience, we use an on line service - make revisions within minutes - easy peasy and cost effective. Depending on where you're at in life, you may want to include how & where you want to be buried or cremated. You will want to group personal items together for bequeathment or just have everything go to auction and divide up the proceeds to friends, family and/or charities or any number of combinations. Maybe asking yourself "Why is Robert bringing this up? Is he trying to tell us something?" The answer is, "Yes - I am trying to tell you something." Death is something that happens to all of us, no getting out of it, so plan accordingly to remove as much burden and turmoil off your family and friends as possible and to ensure everything you worked so hard for, goes to the people and charities you supported in life. Personally, I plan on being around for a very long time to continue to aggravate my beautiful wife but if that changes, I feel confident that we got things covered.

I invite you to read my recent review of the movie “Wildcat” through a Catholic lens. Read the full review: https://lnkd.in/e3PMb8r9 #flanneryoconnor #wildcatmovie #catholic #cwib #writer #georgia #catholicwomeninbusiness #filmreview
“A life fully devoted to living out our Catholic faith is not meant to be silver-lined or shallowly beautiful. Charitable acts of love are selflessly performed in the darkest of places. We are called to be stewards of faith through our unique vocations, just as O’Connor was throughout her beautiful life.” Read our full film review by Christina Sabo of “Wildcat” directed and co-written by four-time Academy Award nominee Ethan Hawke. https://lnkd.in/efpKk32k #flanneryoconnor #catholic #cwib #writer

Even 1️⃣5️⃣years after his death, Michael Jackson can still teach us things (besides how to do the “Thriller” dance in old music videos). We learn that a Will must go through probate, which can potentially be a conflict-laden, lengthy, expensive, and public court process. 🧑⚖️But if you want your family to say “Beat It” to court, you can! Our latest article spills the tea on how Michael Jackson’s estate planning could have been smoother. ▶️ https://lnkd.in/guNExTJT #forneylawtx #estateplan #willsandtrusts #powerofattorney #healthcaredirectives #guardianship #protectyourfamily #kidsprotectionplan #assetprotection #legacy #familylegacy #buildyourlegacy #estateplanningattorney #txestateplanningattorney #personalfamilylawyer #houston #adulting #smallbusiness #txsmallbusiness #businessconsulting #txnonprofit #nonprofit
