Jack and I have started to get serious about getting some of the "Stuff" done in relation to Mom's estate.  We met with Mom and Dad's attorney.  He is old and stupid.  Makes lots of careless mistakes.  I guess it will work out ok.  We are going to keep Mom's house in both of our names.  Eventually it will go to you kids to get rid of..  Mom and Dad really did a good job  of planning.  I hope I can do as good for you kids.
