Estate planning is an ongoing process and should be started as soon as an individual has any measurable asset base. As life progresses and goals shift, the estate plan should shift in line with new goals.

Under Russian law, in article 185 of the Russian Civil Code, a power of attorney can be created by being signed by the donor.[22] Creation of the power of attorney must be witnessed, e.g. countersigned by a public notary. Notarial witnessing is mandatory if the power of attorney is made in order to enter into a contract to buy or sell an interest in land, as this has to be done on a public register.[23]

Texas-based artist Edward Gustav Eisenlohr (1872 – 1961) came to Dallas at the age of two, where his father established Eisenlohr Drug Store. Eisenlohr drew inspiration for art subjects from the Oak Cliff area of Dallas and his travels to New Mexico, the Texas Hill Country, and the western areas of his adopted state. Eisenlohr was Ellen Dorn’s grandfather’s first cousin—in other words, his grandfather was her great great grandfather.
