[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound like a classic "I hate dad's wife" kind of kid.  I can only imagine what your behavior has been like over the years.  I would guess you had a very strained relationship with him once he remarried, which I am sure would have been heartbreaking to him.

You clearly resent that your father spent time and money on his wife and her kids, that's for sure.   Maybe your dad willingly did do because he liked them and wanted to help.  It is certain her kids were there  during his illness and final chapter in life.  The fact they willingly took care of his arrangements is something YOU should be ashamed of since you are his legal next of kin.

Yes you get kudos for sending him money but you made it a point of keeping score.  That's not a genuine act of giving, especially to a parent in need.

He did not want to help them to the point of being destitute. He wanted to keep his wife happy. We would have taken care of the arrangements but this already done this on the same day that he has passed away. Does anyone think that they may have had something to hid or gain by doing this? There is such a thing as elder fraud.[/quote]

This is not elder fraud.  You should have preplanned his death and funeral.  You did not so they did.  [/quote]
