[quote=Anonymous]Over the holidays my FIL asked my DH to be the executor of their will because he’s the oldest and gets along with his siblings the best. I’m skeptical that my DH should be the person executing (we live across the country, his family has some tense relationships, and those might get testier when sad about the death of parents). When I met with an attorney to plan our wills when I was pregnant I was told that we should pick someone who wasn’t a beneficiary to be the executor, so there’s that factor too. I told my DH his dad should ask a friend, but his dad is pretty isolated. His sad said his mom doesn’t want to talk about wills or beneficiaries or executors so asking her to ask a friend wouldn’t work. My DH has concerns, but doesn’t want to leave his parents in the lurch. What should we / he be considering? What does being an executor entail (like would he have to manage selling the house)? Is there a polite way to decline?[/quote]
