And now, my own story. Dad and Mom were married for 40 years, mom passed away in 1982. Dad remarried a year later, to a woman whose kids we went to school with and were in our church. Dad had 4 kids, new wife had 4 kids. They both had assets- she, probably more than he. They were married for 20 years, Dad died in 2003 at age 85. They did Wills that left everything to the 8 kids, share and share alike. Of course, nothing to prevent her from changing her Will to leave everything to her own kids, after Dad died. But, to the best of my knowledge, she has not, and is now 90 and still going strong. My sisters and I discussed it some years ago, and agreed that her nurturing Dad for some 15 years beyond when he would have probably died had he been on his own, is probably worth any inheritance we might get. A couple of her kids would probably push to get her to change the Will, but the son who lives locally and handles her affairs thinks the present setup is the most fair. It will be interesting to see how it eventually comes out. I am a lawyer, and would be expected to come out with guns blazing if the will is changed. But I would not do it, as there is no legal basis to contest whatever they do.

Well I heard from him the next day, and he procee
