The legal and business points brought to us by Bizdoc are excellent advice and should be written or otherwise preserved by each of us. And reviewed often for needed modifications. Health care proxies and Living wills and such should be reduced by photocopying and carried with us on trips in case of accidents away from our home area.

Dbussone alluded to a church ministry at his parish. My church, St George Anglican in Ocala, is formalizing a network system (which is in place informally already) to take those unable to drive to appointments and to just spend time with our members who are alone - including couples- so that these people can realize that a church 'family' really is a caring family unit.

Great posts above on this thread and great topic.
