About the Authors

Denice Wheeler and Mac McIntire are a mother-son team who offer their unique perspective on the inevitable questions and legal challenges surviving family members face when a loved one dies or is disabled. Both Denice and Mac are nationally recognized speakers who share their expertise on a broad spectrum of personal improvement topics. Their interest and involvement in survivorship issues stem from years of helping people identify, plan for, and successfully meet the demands of professional and personal life.

As Chair of the Wyoming Commission for Women, Denice addressed the unique challenges confronting women in the workplace and after retirement. While compiling information on retirement planning, Denice recognized the problems survivor's face when their spouse or parents die without proper planning or having shared information about their estate or bequeathment wishes.

During this same period, Mac, a management consultant, was helping companies envision and prepare for the future through probability-scenario analysis, showing them how to plan and organize to proactively meet those challenges. He recognized that planning for one's death or disability by organizing a Survivor's Journal is an important part of personal preparedness.
