This end of life planner printable keeps everything your family would need in one peaceful binder: who to contact, where papers are, which accounts exist, what you wish for and the words you want to leave them.

It comes in US Letter and A4 as an instant PDF download.

How the end of life planner printable helps your family

Your loved ones will know whom to phone first, which professionals to reach and where the will, deeds and policies are stored, so they can lean on each other instead of searching through drawers. Pages for finances, bills, insurance and digital life only ask for institutions, account types and usernames, with soft reminders never to note account numbers, PINs or passwords.

Pages for your funeral and memorial, two letters, the story of your life and a collection of life notes let you say what matters, in your own voice. Nothing is dated, so any page can be refreshed after a move, a new baby or your yearly review.
