Cools your home 5 Ways to Leave a Lasting Legacy It is customary for people to take inventory of their lives as they grow older, wondering about their impact on the world and the people closest to them. A legacy is often the story of one's life and the things he or she did through the years. The good thing about a legacy is it is never too early to begin planning. The following are some guidelines that can help people establish lasting legacies. • Keep track of your story. Grab a journal and start jotting down events that occur in your life. Men- tion particular achievements or notable things that occur from day to day. Pepper these ac- counts with stories of your family and childhood to start establishing an autobiography of sorts. • Consider your daily actions. Even though people may imagine it is the grand gestures that are re- membered most, quite often it's the simplest acts that make the most impact. Think about the way you treat others each and every day. Smile at peo- ple, compliment others and offer positive advice when it is sought. • Research investments that are profi table. If the goal is to make money to leave for future gen- erations, investigate your options. These include assets that can retain their value. According to NewRetirement.com and Stepping Stone Finan- cial, Inc., vacation homes mean a lot to families and they also can be a source of future revenue should they be rented or sold. Speaking with a fi - nancial advisor also can be a sound way to invest the right way to accumulate assets that can be passed down as a legacy. • Name children or other relatives as benefi ciaries on Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs). With Roth IRAs, distributions are tax-free as long as the person who set up the IRA met the fi ve-year holding period for contributions and conversions. Benefi ciaries can have fi ve years to take out mon- ey from the account; otherwise, they can convert the plan to an Inherited IRA, which stretches out distributions over their life expectancy, according to Investopedia, an online fi nancial resource. • Write a legacy letter. A legacy letter is a way to speak directly to loved ones and say all those things that you had wished you told them ear- lier but maybe didn't fi nd the words or perhaps never had the time, according to Forbes. The letter ensures others know just how much joy they brought to your life and the pride you had in knowing them. Leaving a legacy is something people start to think about as they grow older, but it's easy to start planning a legacy regardless of your age. Ernestine Hamrick Family Thanks White Oak Manor We the family of Ernes- tine Hamrick, appreciate the love, the concern and the efforts implemented at all our nursing facilities. They reassure us by making our loved ones feel cared for, especially during this pan- demic. But we as family members have got to do our part. We've got to show our love as well. We as family mem- bers should constantly show up, if all possible and let them know that we are still here for them and that we still care. We are not aware, but we could cause our loved ones to get cabin fever, depres- sion, and even get stressed out and give up. Thanks to the Administrator Stacey Sanford, she allows us to come see them and car- ry on conversation at the win- dow. We also thank her staff, and the whole Health Care team at White Oak Manor in Kings Mountain, NC. Thank you for everything, " The Hamrick Family". So remember, we are in this together. Lets love one another in and out of these facilities. Please show the Love, Be- cause the elderly's lives mat- ter.
