A letter of last instruction is an informal, non-legal document that tells your survivors info they need immediately at your death, not weeks later after final arrangements have been made and your will located.
Start with what you want done with your body: donate to science, organ donations, cremation, burial, etc. Be specific.
What kind of ceremony, if any, that you desire: traditional funeral, wild Irish wake complete with free-flowing whisky, party at the beach or mountains, be specific.
Nitty gritty financial details:
Where to find your will and estate planning documents, contact info for your attorney.
Notify Social Security right away.
