When someone dies—or when you are trying to prepare your family—it can be difficult to know where to begin.

Navigating Death: The Family Guide offers calm, practical guidance for the decisions and responsibilities that arise before, during, and after a death. Instead of trying to handle everything at once, the guide helps you identify what to do now, what to do next, and what can wait.

• A First 30 Days After a Death checklist

• Clear guidance for immediate and longer-term tasks

• Questions to ask funeral homes, attorneys, financial institutions, and other professionals

• Nine practical worksheets for organizing important information

• Tools for locating documents, tracking accounts, recording contacts, and managing responsibilities
