My wife’s parents died without a will. It’s led to her siblings fighting over who owns their home (it’s in another country and we’re staying out of it). It’s split the family in two. The moral is- you’re gonna die someday. Have a will.

Have a will, and life insurance, and specify what should happen to all the STUFF. Jimmy gets the credenza, Esther gets the statue of the poodle, etc. People fight over the stupidest stuff at stressful times.
The kid gets it all. Just plant me in the damn garden next to the stupid lion.
