Making a list for the inevitable

Just the other day, a neighbor made reference to her list of who to contact in the event of her death. I asked for additional information and she told me that she has a single sheet of paper on which she has listed the people who need to be notified when she dies. This includes her family and friends but also includes business contacts such as the Electric Company, her bank and other entities that may need to know that the inevitable event has occurred.
If you were to fill in the worksheets in "Assisting Our Aging Parents and Patients" most of these contacts would be listed. It is a good idea to make such a list and to update it on a regular basis.
