Gerri explains to her attorney that Mid-County is important to her but needs to keep her savings in case she needs it for her care in her golden years. Gerri’s attorney suggests she consider naming Mid-County Center as a beneficiary to her retirement account or as a specific bequest in her will. Gerri asks that the bequest be made in memory of Gerri and her father John, whom she wishes to honor.
