Oh, what we didn't know! The workshop made it clear we were not prepared for our golden years! But we now have an opportunity to do things right!

“
I originally signed up for the workshop, knowing that I was interested in the topics being offered. I invited my husband to join me and he agreed to go. He actually thanked me after the presentation, saying "good job Linda"...this is exactly what we need. We scheduled an appointment to have all of our "documents" from New York reviewed and updated now that we live full time in North Carolina. Helayne was amazing.
