Q. In my will it states body to be cremated in FL, my now state of residence. What Happens should I die somewhere else?

October 3, 2019

A: I recommend that burial/cremation directions be included in a designation of health care surrogate and/or a living will. I also recommend making such arrangements ahead of time and provide that info to your surrogate and family members.
