It ensures your estate will be distributed in the future according to your wishes, instead of the rules of the state of New Hampshire. And it is one of the ways you can make a gift to NHPR without any current cash outlay. Do you have questions about your estate plan? You can join NHPR for an estate planning seminar on Sept. 10 at 2 p.m. at the Portsmouth Public Library. It helps us plan for the future and gives me the opportunity to thank you appropriately.
