Hi, I'm sorry for you loss. When you've done a living trust before with a lawyer, usually without incurring lawyer bills. There are a couple of ways to make amendment to your living trust. One is indeed to attach an amendment. Just be sure your changes -- what you want to delete and what you want to add -- are crystal clear. And when you sign it, get your signatures notarized, just like the original. Another way to go is to create a "restatement" of your trust. Basically, it's a new trust document that "restates" the original one, with the changes you want. Especially if you make multiple amendments over the years, this can be a cleaner, less confusing way to go.

Living Trust Revocation?
Get StartedThe Living Trust Revocation is a document used to revoke a living trust or joint living trust. The Revocation can be used to either dismantle the entire plan of using a revocable living trust or to revoke the "old" living trust in preparation for preparing and signing a "new" living trust. However, if a new living trust will be created, and if it will have the same number of grantors as the revoked living trust, consider amending and restating the existing living trust instead of revoking it. If the living trust is merely restated and not revoked/replaced, the assets already transferred to the living trust will remain in the living trust, avoiding the need to transfer each of them. (See this program's Living Trust or Joint Living Trust documents and select the option to "Amend" the Trust.)
