Completion of Wills

Needed to sort the Will as children had grown up and wanted things in place for the future if something happened to one of us.

Melodie answered all our questions, informed us of pitfalls and the law in the event of different scenarios. We are extremely grateful and glad that this is all in place now for the future for both of us and our families
