Your beneficiary deed sample contains a error of the LDPS designation. I copied the designation of LPDS instead of the correct designation

very good forms and easy to print and read. I need a notary form from a different state. We are both from the state of Michigan. This would make it easier to complete out of the State of Utah. Thanks Robert W.
