[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What you call "schmoozing", unmarried aunts might call "company." Being elderly is lonely.  Yes, it's nice that you've visited for all these years 1-2x a year, but if SIL calls once or twice a week every week and chats away with them....well, I'd leave her money, too.  That's legitimately kind and thoughtful.

Is there a chance that they legitimately feel closer to her than to you or your brother?[/quote]

I would hope that if I decided to do something stupid by [b]arbitrarily disinheriting[/b] some family members, a close friend or family member would discuss the matter with me and make sure I'm aware of the consequences. If I have good reasons, that's fine and can be elucidated in such a conversation. Sometimes we all need a gentle reminder to reconsider our actions.[/quote]
This doesn’t seem like it was arbitrary.[/quote]
Aunt sick and dying in the hospital changing her will to a wife of a nephew!?! lol. 
Then hospital divorce was probably mainly to not bankrupt the healthy spouse and get on Medicaid and free hospice asap. [/quote]
OP only just found out about it, but SIL was named as their executor years ago. OP doesn’t really know the details regarding how this came to pass. Apparently, SIL has had a relationship with these aunts that OP knew nothing about. OP is really in no position to judge the aunts or SIL.[/quote]

Of course both sides will be judged, barring an obvious offense or infraction, if you change your will like this later. [/quote]

It’s really this simple. [/quote]
