This, perhaps more than anything else, is what distinguishes legacy planning from estate planning: the content of what some call the &#8220;ethical will,&#8221; and others refer to as a person&#8217;s &#8220;testament&#8221; or &#8220;legacy letter&#8221; or what our second legacy [...]]]></description>
