Sandy Cowen created this very personal company to meet the needs of people who are realistic enough to recognize that none of us live forever, who want their children to gain the maximum value from their estate and who would like their family history to live on past them. What started as a gift to her son ended up being a gift to anyone who sees the value in organization, sharing important information and treasuring family memories and history. MY LIFE IN ORDER is a lasting gift of love you can give to your family.
