Managing Family Records  

Drowning in piles of paperwork at home? Can you find documents when you need them? It is time to bring order to your life.

Good records simplify your life. They also save a lot of hassle for your heirs when they need to find information on savings accounts, life insurance policies, deeds, titles, and investments. 

How do you get a handle on managing all this information? Throw out those shoe boxes and overflowing accordion files. A fireproof home safe or bank safe-deposit box protects against fire and flood. A home filing cabinet can help when you need documents handy. 

Stop by the extension center and pick up guide GH3831 Managing Family Records. When you need to know what to keep, what to toss and where to stash all your important information, turn to extension for the answer.
