I personally would not want to know when and where. However, having lost both my parents over the last 3 years and just sold their property..it makes you think about getting things in place to make it easier for your children. We made a Will years ago and explained it to our boys. Paperwork is all in place with regard to insurances and a list of who to contact etc. My Dad did all of this too.
However, we spent many a weekend at his place and although they had downsized in their remaining years they had cupboards and drawers filled with so much stuff.
My youngest son flies the nest at the end of the month leaving just the two of us and we will be looking to downsize too and move to pastures anew....and I will have a serious declutter in mind of what they may have to do in the future when we are no longer here...
