Audreyrose, one of our friends asked a very respected lady in our church to act as her POA for healthcare.

Audrey, I'd be careful about a "public official", if by that you mean someone in a governmental agency.
And I suspect that a stranger in that capacity might be accused of conflict of interest if he/she accepted a position for someone he/she doesn't know.
Do you have a trusted attorney?
