My stepdad died unexpectedly about ten years back, mid 40's, complications of the flu. I ended up executor of estate. Fucking mess for sure. Handled my own will as soon as I was done with that.
Everyone who has anyone in their life should get it done, like..tomorrow. It's really easy, and really cheap.
Example of a mess. I had him cremated and gave his ashes to my little sister, his oldest child. Turns out he probably wouldn't have wanted that and his entire family hates me.
Shoulda made a will, and included a provision for burial.
He was co owner of some homes with my mother, in brick street neighborhoods, on Tampa Bay, catty corner to an elementary school..as per a divorce agreement. How much of the proceeds of those sales do you think went to "his" side of the family?
One went and I paid his back child support, to my mother..who promptly distributed that to we three children of that marriage (surprise, adopted..plus my two siblings). The other went to my little sister...they're about to sell, 50% goes to my moms, and the remaining 50% is split between me..my little sister, and his other daughter with another mother.
Womp womp. Don't let it be you.
