I remember some of the conversations that they had with my parents and one of the regrets was not having copies of all their paperwork (titles, insurance doc's, etc).
Being a new age, I would recommend that you not just put all of your doc's in a fire safe, but back up scanned copies on a flash drive. I have had a KingMax 4GB flash drive for a few years now with no problems. They are washer/dryer safe and under $20 on Amazon. I have copies of all my training certs, DD Form 214, VA Records, bank statements, birth certs, marriage certs, SSN cards, retirement paperwork, family photos, etc. Check out the flash drive you won't be disappointed.
