I don't have much advice (and need to address all this stuff myself) but just from doing the little bit I have done for my friend (MFM) since he passed: At the very least, write down your wishes and tell somebody where that is. include bank accounts, passwords to computers, and just a basic plan of what you would prefer to happen if you become incapacitated or died unexpectedly. It would likely not be enforceable if there was conflict but if there were simple questions your friends/survivors wanted to know it could guide them.
