President’s Message:

Given an aging population and rapidly evolving technology, estate planning is a vital, evolving field that directly impacts everyone in our community.  The demand for a network of skilled professionals to assist clients with navigating the challenges of estate planning is significant.  The council thrives on helping local professionals increase their estate planning knowledge and strengthen their connections with other estate planning professionals in the area.   

The Board of Directors is excited about this year’s speaker programs.  The topics will provide attendees with insight into current and emerging estate planning matters.  The Directors welcome member feedback on these seminars and encourage members to submit suggestions for future speakers to the Directors.

Importantly, the seminar luncheons, seminar breaks, and informal receptions provide members with an out-of-office environment to interact with colleagues in other estate planning professions.  My sincere hope is that you take full advantage of these network-building opportunities.

The other Directors and I look forward to seeing the council’s returning members at our first program and encourage individuals contemplating joining the organization to give the council a try.  If you know someone interested in joining, please encourage them to contact me.

See you in September!

--Keven Jay Kercher, President
