Calligaro offers simple, specific suggestions, including providing form letters to help the widow apply for insurance, Social Security and veterans' benefits. She evens tells the new widow what office-type supplies she'll need to get started on sorting and inventorying legal, financial and insurance documents and keeping accurate up-to-date records in the future. -- Northwest Florida Daily News, March 10, 1998

From applying for social security and life insurance benefits to managing finances, this workbook blends tips on organizing with practical advice to widows on how to handle the paperwork and financial concerns which will evolve over the months. Calligaro is a probate and estate planning attorney backed with fifteen years experience: her book is filled with practical advice. -- Midwest Book Review

Happily married couples might prefer to die together, peacefully in their sleep. Unfortunately this seldom happens, and if the husband dies first, this book will help the widow deal with the legal and financial problems occurring within the first 6-9 months. Each chapter has a specific topic [Getting Organized, Probate, Applying for Insurance Benefits, etc.] with a "to do list", sample letters if appropriate, with short, pithy instructions in understandable English. There's a good index as well. If the wife was the principal breadwinner, this book applies equally to the surviving widower. Makes a practical gift to the recently bereaved. -- Baldwin Ledger, September, 1998

This book is a great help for that women caught up in the horrible days following the loss of her husband. So many women have no idea where to go for help when their spouse dies or how to regain control of their lives. This book could help that person. -- The Nashville News, April 1, 1998

The Widows Resource

August 23, 2007

Format: Paperback

Probably should be re-named 'The Widows Resource If You've Been Left With A Lot Of Money And Don't Know What To Do With It'....I was hoping to find information on how to handle the loss of ones major source of income without becoming a bag lady......this is definately not the book for that. A good book though if you actually have money to worry about.

Format: Paperback

If one does any reading at all this information is easily available. The Funeral Directors generally give information on these generalities.

OK for the price though.
