His Favorite Part Of His Job
Frank's favorite part of his job is helping people create and implement an estate plan that evolves as their lives grow.
Why He Does This Work
Frank's entry into the field of estate planning is deeply rooted in his personal experiences with the passing of his sister's husband and his father. In 2008, his sister's husband succumbed to Stage 4 lung cancer. This event had a profound impact on Frank as he observed the difficulties his sister faced, exacerbated by the absence of an estate plan. The situation was complicated by the fact that his sister and her husband were in a second marriage, with children from both sides, requiring careful navigation of inheritance matters.
Subsequently, in 2010, Frank's father passed away after battling Alzheimer's. The lack of an estate plan from his mother added another layer of complexity to an already challenging situation. Witnessing the emotional and financial toll on his family, Frank realized the importance of comprehensive estate planning, not only for managing assets but also for addressing healthcare directives and other critical aspects.
These personal tragedies became catalysts for Frank's commitment to helping others avoid similar hardships. His sister, despite the challenges, did the right thing regarding her husband's daughters and grandchildren's inheritance. Still, the experience motivated Frank to ensure that more families are well-prepared for the inevitable. His mission is driven by the desire to prevent others from enduring the same difficulties his family faced, promoting the importance of proactive estate planning to secure the financial well-being and peace of mind for future generations.
