Good for her!! I was thrilled to read her friends and family would most likely be delighted with her decissions.

Good for her. Worldly possessions should be willed where the willer's love was...

A lady in the UK recently left millions to the RSPCA, but her daughter said she (the mum) had meant to change the Will, and challenged it. The daughter got all the money. If you've got a lot of money, give it away before you go, so you know it's with those you want to have it. Me, I'm not rich. ;o)
