Remember:
1. It must be all typed or all hand written
2. It must have two witnesses with contact information and they will have to sign an affidavit to state they saw you sign the will.
3. DATE the will SO important to date it.
* I also recommend that you make a copy and write where the original will is on the top and give it to your executor. They will have to be able to find the original.
Funeral preplanning is two steps.
-
Deciding what your wishes are for end of life care
-
Creating a Purple Shield Policy with funds to pay for your wishes.
A “cremation container” or “cremation casket” is required in Canada. This is not optional everyone MUST have one.
Cremation caskets range from simple wood boxes to full traditional caskets.
Crematoriums are expensive to operate so your funeral home/local crematorium will require you to purchase the cremation casket through the funeral home. They do this so they can be confident of the quality and safety of the materials being used.

There are two options currently available in most of Canada. Traditional earth burial or cremation
Urns must be large enough. Plan on 200 cubic inches or 14 cups of space. A good visual would be about the size of a 4L of soda.
