With biblical roots but not tied to religion, a nonlegal ethical will provides what you want your loved ones to know and to understand about your life, such as the values that you hold as precious and meaningful at your core, the values you have treasured, and the people who have shown you the way. Legal wills bequeath valuables; ethical wills bequeath values. Barbara Morgenstern is a licensed attorney and previously was a reporter at the Cincinnati Post and taught media law, nonfiction writing, and reporting at Miami Univ.
