Most of my friends celebrate Easter or Passover, and a few observe Ramadan. I’ve been fortunate to share in both Easter and Passover over the years thanks to close Jewish friends. I love the traditions—and I find comfort in knowing that our grandparents, great-grandparents, and ancestors before them have read the same words, shared similar meals, and kept these customs alive. These moments remind us how deeply connected we are across generations.
Holidays like these are often when we gather with family—and with those we consider family even if we’re not related. These big celebrations are a perfect opportunity to check in with loved ones, especially those without children, or who are widowed. It’s a good time to gently ask: Do they have someone who can step in to help if needed? Do they have their legal documents in place?
Having a plan means they can receive help during life and avoid unnecessary court involvement when they pass. It’s a small act of love that can make a big difference.
If someone you care about needs help putting that plan in place, give me a call.
