[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sell the house and split the proceeds with Mary and her brother. [b]You take half and they can split the other half. [/b]

A young woman your age does not want to be saddled with a house and all that entails: maintenance, taxes, more maintenance- because stuff is always going wrong with houses. If you sell the house, you can use the money for your education and a nice apartment or condo.

It is so odd that Thelma left her family home to a great niece rather than her own children. Maybe she had some mental health difficulties herself. This is your chance to right that wrong so that the whole extended family can move forward. If you give Thelma's children part of the money now, you can know as you grow older that you did the right thing and can feel good about your actions.

Again with the taking care of Mary & Roy?

No just NO.

Mary & Roy were both included in the inheretence & Roy has not asked for a single dime... in fact, he backs LARLA not to give anything to Mary!

These were Thelma's dying wishes & Mary is NOT entitled to any more than Thelma left to her.

What is with you people that keep lumping Mary & Roy together & acting like they need eternal care?

NEWSFLASH:  THEY ARE ADULTS!

Why does mental illness have to be involved if a mother doesn't want to enable her spoiled, lazy & entitled daughter anymore??

Mary is NOT a depressed invalid, she's an over entitled, over educated waitress... sheesh! [/quote]

It is not caretaking to give them what rightfully belongs to their family.[b] The circumstances of Thelma's "will" are such that there are questions as to whether it truly reflects her "dying wishes" - especially since she was not dying at the time she supposedly wrote the will and, according to Larla, was in perfect health on the day she died. [/b]

Mary and Roy should inherit the property that both their parents worked hard to earn and take care of over many years. [/quote]

W.T.F.
Wills don't count in your world unless the person is actually dying when he or she writes the will?
Good luck with that.

OP, get a lawyer to help you get Mary out of your house.[/quote]

The previous post is the one that first used the phrase "dying wishes."  There was something not quite right about that will all along. Larla's grandmother takes her sister to the lawyer and when they leave, Thelma is leaving her family home to her sister's granddaughter instead of to her own children. Ask a lawyer who does estate work how common it is to leave a family home to a great niece over one's own children and the answer would be that it is pretty darn uncommon. Mary and Roy should have consulted a lawyer as soon as they heard about this five year old will.

I wonder if Larla's grandmother is feeling a little guilty about how this all worked out and is trying to right the wrong by giving Mary more of her mother's money. [/quote]

Ah, so you're the ONE poster who keeps saying that the house should be "Mary & Roy's" over and over again... you're like a dog with a bone (and don't try to deny, your writing style is a dead give away).

Roy wants NO part of this house and agrees that Mary needs to get the F out.

I'm pretty sure that ROY knows better than you do about what's going on with Mary & the best person to take inherit the house... Larla.[/quote]
