Today’s episode topic is one few people instinctively want to consider, however, it’s one that every person should really take the time to research and remain vigilant about… and the sooner the better. Yes, even you millennials. On today’s episode we do a deep dive on end of life and estate planning: living wills, advanced directives, DNRs, power of attorney and all forms of planned giving. On its face, this may seem like a rather dour topic, but in truth it is a way of ensuring you own final needs and providing for your family and the organizations you want to support with your final gifts. And perhaps more importantly, we talk about how these considerations are very much impacted by our faith and Catholic teaching. These considerations are as much a spiritual exercise as logistical and financial ones.
Our hosts Mary McCusker and Mike Walsh learn a lot from our guests, Mariann Gilbride, Director of Development for the Diocese of Camden; Deacon Jerry Jablonowski, Executive Director of VITALity Catholic Healthcare Services, and Patrick McGrory, a South Jersey financial advisor, vice chair of the Diocese of Camden’s finance council and member of the Raskob Foundation for Catholic Activities.
