Wow. I hope you got what your mother intended for you to have. If not does this make it easier or harder to get justice? I wonder if his new wife is decent enough to give you things that you would cherish. She has no tie to them.

Damn girl...sorry.
What is it about money that brings out the worst in people? Of course your mother would want to provide for her children in a will. Sorry it's ending with an atterny.

Back To the Main Page
It's been a weird few days and I must say I've not been so aware of Karma in a long time. Remember when I was upset about the will and the fact that my step-dad wasn't honoring my Mom's will? He lied and said there wasn't one. Then when we found that there was a will. His story then became, that he'd told us that there was a will but it didn't make provisions for us. Well there was a will and line three of the nonexistent (HA!) will DID make provisions for her three children. Surprise, surprise. He also remarried 3 days after the 1st anniversary of my Mom's death. Hard to swallow, but no one wants to be alone...so forgivable.
Needless to say there's been some hard feelings about the fact that we retained an attorney to sort the whole mess out. There has also been some hard feelings because the side of the story that was presented to our step-siblings wasn't true. Oh sure, part of the story his told his kids was real. For example we did indeed hire an attorney, and we did want money from him. He painted a picture of three evil children trying to strip him of his last dime. To put this in perspective for those of you who weren't around when the original story was posted. We're talking about $30,000 to split between her three kids. He got both of her life insurance policies, her house valued at over $300,000.00, and her retirement, which I might add was rolled into his account on the 19th of January. Felt like one final slap in the face. Let me tell ya.
Well, he died. Tuesday some time. Heart attack. He was alone. Now his kids are dealing with a step-mother they don't even know. Who now has control over their father's estate. Made up of a LOT of my Mom's belongings and money...not to mention her house.
I guess my point is this...You really shouldn't judge someone's actions until you've walked a mile in their shoes. Unfortunately, they now have to put our shoes on and walk that mile. I don't hate them. In fact, quite the opposite. I truly care for them. But, the honest, human part of me can't help but say..."Karma is a real bitch ain't it??"
