Sep 13, 2025 - Not My Problem… Until It Is: Executor Truths and Funeral Realities (Leduc)

Choosing an executor isn’t just about trust; it’s about time, knowledge, responsibility, and risk. The wrong choice can lead to delays, legal battles, and even family disputes. Many people assume their executor will “just handle it,” but the truth is most executors face overwhelming challenges, emotional strain, and legal pitfalls they never expected.

That’s why we’re bringing together a Powerhouse Panel of Experts for a candid and eye-opening seminar:

🎤 Jeanni Guenther – Family Service Advisor & Certified Executor Advisor (Dignity Memorial)

🎤 Paul Newcombe – Estate Lawyer & Provincial Justice of the Peace

🎤 Zenon Bereznicki, CFA® – Portfolio Manager, Dixon Mitchell Investment Counsel

🎤 Jaryll Dunne – Certified Executor Advisor & Founder, Maxxentum Inc.

Together, they’ll tackle the hard truths of estate planning, executor responsibilities, and financial realities. Through engaging discussion and dynamic Q&A, you’ll learn:

✅ The 11 crucial considerations when selecting an executor

✅ What separates a strong executor from one who will be overwhelmed

✅ The judge’s perspective on wills, probate, and disputes

✅ How financial planning strategies protect executors and families

✅ Common legal pitfalls and how to avoid costly delays

✅ Why preplanning a funeral can be the greatest gift you leave behind

✅ What really happens when there’s no Will or when the wrong executor is chosen

You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and you might even rethink your executor choice on the spot.

Spoiler alert: By the end of the session, you may feel the urgent need to update your Will, set a better plan for your executor, or finally put your funeral wishes in writing.
