Meeting Room A

Join financial advisor Nathaniel Wingfield from Edward Jones investing company to learn about the basics of managing your finances, investments, and more over a four-part program series.

It’s a topic people tend to put off or ignore, but one of the most important things you can do is develop a sound plan for your estate. Doing so lets you take a giant step toward a more secure future for yourself and generations to come.

Attend our Creating Your Estate Plan presentation and you’ll learn more about:

• What to consider when creating your will

• The benefits of trusts in estate planning

• How to help reduce taxes on your estate

• How insurance can help protect your family

We hope you will join us.
