At Bristol Law Office, we believe in not just having Plan B, but Plan C, just in case.  We know of a case where a husband and wife just named each other as agents; no alternate agents were named.  The wife’s dementia ultimately lead to her being placed in a nursing home.  So far so good, but then the husband had a stroke and became incompetent.  Because they did not list alternate agents, their families were in a bad situation.  It is important to always name alternate agents.
