Dear Amy: My older sister is 75 and unmarried.

My sister has always avoided aging and seems in denial about mortality.

Last year I shared with my sister my general estate plan, including the fact that I have a will, power of attorney, trust and advance medical directive, and gave the names of my appointees.

Dear Amy: My grandmother was married and widowed four times. Her resting place remains unmarked because the family had a very ugly argument about what should go on her headstone.I would like to put a nice headstone up for her, but have no idea what to put on it.
