Because your legacy is more than documents. It’s love, voice, and memory.
End-of-Life Planning: More Than Legal Paperwork
When we hear the phrase “end-of-life planning,” most of us immediately think of legal paperwork: wills, insurance, trusts, power of attorney. And while those things are absolutely important, they only tell half the story.
What your loved ones will miss most when you’re gone isn’t your signature—it’s you. Your voice, your stories. your hugs. your sense of humor, and your words.
That’s why end-of-life planning needs to be more than legal. - It needs to be emotional.
And that’s where Potter’s Messages comes in.
Planning for What Really Matters
Yes, it’s responsible to set up a will.
Yes, it’s smart to make sure your finances and decisions are in order.
But it’s also compassionate—deeply human—to think about how your presence can continue to comfort, encourage, and support the people you love after you’re gone. Because when your spouse is having a hard day, they won’t reach for your will, they’ll wish they could hear your voice.
When your child graduates or walks down the aisle, they won’t be thinking about legal forms, they’ll be wondering what you would’ve said in that moment.
Potter’s Messages gives you a way to say it—right on time.
A Different Kind of Legacy
What if your end-of-life plan included:
- A video message to your son on his 18th birthday
- A letter to your partner for your anniversary
- Words of wisdom for your daughter’s wedding day
- A story from your childhood told to future grandkids
- Encouragement and love for the people who meant the most to you
With Potter’s Messages, it’s easy to record, schedule, and deliver heartfelt messages that keep showing up even after you’re gone.
It’s not just planning for your departure.
It’s planning to be present—even in your absence.
Why Emotional Planning Helps the People You Love Most
Grief doesn’t come with a user manual, and even the most well-organized estate plan won’t soften the sting of loss.
But a message that says “I love you,”
A video that says “I’m proud of you,”
A letter that says “You’re going to be okay”
That kind of emotional preparation heals. It soothes. It reminds the people you love that they were seen, known, and cherished by you. - And what better gift of love could you leave?
This Isn’t Morbid. It’s Meaningful.
Talking about death makes a lot of people uncomfortable—but maybe it shouldn’t.
This kind of planning isn’t about dying...It’s about loving....It’s about showing up—fully, intentionally—for the people who will carry your memory.
When you create an emotional legacy, you’re saying:
“Even when I’m not here physically, I’m still part of your story.”
That’s not morbid. That’s beautiful.
