Today, as we pause to observe Memorial Day, I want to personally extend my deepest gratitude to the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the reason we continue to enjoy the freedoms and opportunities we often take for granted.

At Advance Planning Professionals, we understand the importance of legacy, honor, and protecting what matters most. Today is a reminder that true legacy is built through service, sacrifice, and love for others.

As we spend time with family and loved ones, let us also remember the families carrying the weight of loss today. May we never forget those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom.

From my family to yours, thank you to all who have served and sacrificed. 🇺🇸

👋🏽 Hey friends, it's Shelby, your Advance Planning Professional and I need to warn you about something important!

A page called "Senior Benefits Finder" is sending messages claiming you've been approved for a "$6,600 Senior Card" for food, gas, and utilities.

THIS IS A SCAM. ❌

I looked into this personally, and it has been verified. There is no such thing as a government-issued Senior Card. Experts and consumer protection agencies have confirmed that pages like this are designed to steal your personal information. A recent investigation found that scammers spent $49 million running over 150,000 fake benefit ads on Facebook and Instagram and they are specifically targeting our seniors.

That breaks my heart. And I'm not going to stay silent about it. 💔

If you or someone you love received this message:

- Do NOT tap "Yes Please" or click any links
- Do NOT give your name, address, Social Security number, or bank information
- Block and report the page immediately on Facebook
- Report it to the FTC at ReportFraud.ftc.gov

Listen...before YOU or anyone you know responds to ANY advertisement online, on TV, or by phone promising benefits, cards, checks, or approvals…

Call me first. I will verify it for you, absolutely FREE. That's a promise. 🤝🏽

What would happen if you passed away while away from home?

Would your family know:
• Who to call?
• How to afford transportation costs?
• How to get you back home to your loved ones?

Most families are not prepared for the emotional and financial burden that comes with bringing a loved one home after an unexpected passing away from home or abroad. Transportation and repatriation costs can reach thousands of dollars at the worst possible time.

At Advance Planning Professionals, we believe having your affairs in order means preparing for the unexpected before a crisis happens.

We help individuals and families learn about:
✔️ Repatriation protection
✔️ Final Wishes
✔️ Life insurance solutions
✔️ Advance planning services
✔️ Free legal document preparation services

Do not leave your family guessing during one of the hardest moments of their lives.

Let Me Ask You Something…

If something happened to you tomorrow…
would your family know exactly what to do?

Not guess.
Not stress.
Not argue.

I am talking about:
✔️ Who makes decisions for you
✔️ Where your money goes
✔️ What happens to your home
✔️ Your final wishes

Most people think they have a plan… but they are missing at least one critical piece.

Be honest…
Do you have ALL 5 of these in place?

Comment "READY" and I will send you the checklist I use with my clients (no cost).

Comment "NOT SURE" and I will help you figure it out.

💔 Carolyn was more than an Advance Planning Professional and Insurance Agent. She was FAMILY to me. I will truly miss her. ❤️

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Carolyn, a cherished member of the Advance Planning Professionals family.

Carolyn was our Mississippi-based agent and one of the very first Life and Health professionals to join our Tennessee Office. Her belief in our mission, her dedication to serving others, and her commitment to excellence helped shape the foundation of who we are today.

Carolyn’s impact extended beyond policies and plans—she built relationships, offered guidance, and served her clients with care and integrity. She will be deeply missed.

We ask that you keep her family and loved ones in your thoughts and prayers during this time.

🕊️ Rest in peace, Carolyn. Your legacy lives on.
