Part of becoming a “good and faithful steward” is to create a plan for your estate, which includes your financial assets, property, business interests, life insurance, and retirement accounts, as well as any personal property (jewelry, cars, heirlooms, etc). Creating clear plans and sharing those plans with your loved ones is an act of love that lifts the burden of navigating these things without your direction after your death.
