Wills
Differs by states somewhat, but generally witnesses should not be named in will or be family members. Banks all have notaries -- and they are validating your signature only, not the content of the document. I'm sure they would also provide witnesses for your signature.
Wills...
I like her site a lot and thought the will kit was very user-friendly. She has her lawyer also speak in there. I'm still learning about wills and revocable trusts, but she explains things really well. I have one for me and now have to get one for dh. He jokes and says he'll just write his on a napkin while mine looks great, lol. I also love watching her show every Saturday night. I plan on calling my bank and asking what they do offer. Thanks!
Can we talk Wills?
I just bought a Will through Suze Orman's site (love her!), but was wondering about the part where you need to bring 2 witnesses with you to get it notarized. Has anyone done this or know how to go about getting this all done? The people I would trust to go with are in the Will, so what do you do? Can I go to the library or Currency Exchange? I watch her show and finally cracked down to get one since I am 39 with a family. Any experience or advice would be great. You can also e-mail me.
Thanks!
Wills cannot be CHANGED. They can be
be contested, but the involved heirs have to agree and consent to the change in distribution.
Without their agreement nothing can be changed.
need advice about wills
my 91 yo grandmother died last week. Her only heirs are my sister and I and a nephew of hers. For 30 years our grandmother has told us that basically her only goal in life was to see that we were well-provided for after she dies. She sent us detailed lists of all the furnishings in her home and what they were worth (all antiques from the 30s). She also had 2 CDs that were quite large (6 figures) and she lived off the interest from those. She was placed in a nursing home 2 years ago. Her home and furnishings were sold at auction about that time. She provided us with the name of her attorney. There is a storage facility holding the last of her furniture from the assisted living center and various personal items. Now we are getting the run around from the attorney. He didn't even know my name when i called him! (He has been my grandmother's attorney for years and years). When I asked about the items in storage he said I would have to wait for him to send me the letter (he did not say copy of the will, just letter). He was not able to discuss anything with me until I received the letter. I am flabbergasted and hurt about the whole situation. My grandmother was alert and with all of her faculties right up until the end. Now I think the attorney and the nephew are conspiring (the nephew is a bit of a pansy and whenever my sis and i try to discuss the situation from him he gets all nervous). What recourse do i have if we are "cut out" of things. We have letters from my grandmother stating what her wishes were concerning my sister and I. I am just sick about the whole situation but don't want to appear to be "just in it for the money". I'm not, but I would like something of my grandmother's to pass onto my children at some point, even if they are just photographs. Any advice? Thanks in advance.
Not wills, but we had to have a bunch of stuff
notarized and needed 2 witnesses for some government paperwork, and our bank provided the notary and 2 witnesses free of charge, so like others said, check with your bank for sure. By the way, how did you like the the Suze Orman will service? We don't have wills, and I had actually looked at that in the past, too. Thanks!
Just to let you know, wills are not iron clad
and can be broken. If that was her child, the one who was written out supposedly, he would come before grandchildren and others in a court of law. Did you visit your grandmother in the nursing home and was she of sound mind? My great-uncle died and did not have my mother, his niece and another niece, in his will. Made no difference. They hired a lawyer, went to court and actually wound up with $7,000 each even though not even mentioned in the will.
Wills can be changed, they are not iron clad
I know because my mother and her cousin contested her uncle's will and each came out with $7,000 from their contesting.
Anna
Been wondering that myself. Wonder what will happen to the baby girl?
Anna's DNA
They want Anna's DNA to make sure the baby they test is Anna's and they don't do a "baby switch" so that it won't look like L. Birkhead is the father.
anna
but her mother has had nothing to do with her for years so why she get her. She would have told Howard where she would have wanted to be buried over her mother. Bury her next to her son. Who would not want to be with their own child. Obviously she picked that site for her child to be buried there, bury her next to him. She bought the 4 plots for a reason.
Anna
I so agree with you. I believe she bought the 4 plots so at some point in time she could be buried next to her son. She hated her mother from what I have seen, so why should the mother have any say? Anna did not buy plots in Texas. I think she has a right to be put to rest beside her child.
anna
I totally agree. Who would think that we would have to bury our children before us. She did just buy these plots recently. It is not like she bought them 30 years ago.
Anna
Yes I know. I had my thoughts on that from day one. I guess maybe we will never know, but it doesn't look good.
anna
He did not brainwash her against her mom. She left her mom when she was a teenager. As far as the baby, I believe both and Anna did know that she wasn't his but that is what Anna chose. He did not kidnap and you can't even compare the two. That is what she wanted. She had the money and the means and could have got away from him if she wanted.
Thanks Anna
I am glad they like us and want to spend time here, just not every weekend.
I think part of it is that I am pregnant and hormonal. I am also used to having little to no family (especially in-laws) and its just a huge adjustment. Another part is that I don't want to be the "bad guy" but I guess sometimes I will have to if I don't want the mess. Husbands don't think of things like wives do. Its unfair of me to expect him to. Third, our son never spends substantial time over there unless we are with him. BUT, next time he is complaining he's bored maybe I'll tell him to call his uncle and see if he can come over. They can return the favor once in a while.
Anna is now dead
I just saw on the Comcast home page Anna is now dead?
Anna's Baby
Yes! Yes! Yes! The baby should be with the real father now.
anna nicole
But her poor baby is without a mom now.
DNA for Anna Nicole
I think (and I would perhaps agree if I were Larry) that he wants Anna's DNA sample just to make sure she did not fake her own death. Face it she had the money and with Howard on the baby's birth certificate . . . Not sure that she did fake her own death because I think she loved the spot light too much, but maybe that is the reason behind all this with the DNA from her.
Anna Nicole
Does anyone think her mom should get the right to take her back to Texas? I know none of the players in this saga have much integrity but I think she should be buried next to her son in the Bahamas. What a mess!
Anna Nicole
I think she should be buried next to her son. I am not crazy about her mom, but I don't like Howard either. It looks like everyone is looking to get something from her. It's such a sad story...
Anna Nicole
I guess they found 11 different RX for pain killers and sedatives in Anna Nicole's room, all in the name of Howard Stern... Looks fishier and fishier...
Anna banana, thanks, that is very...
... gracious and generous, but I really have got it together and it's okay. You are so right; I'm looking forward to it being a lot of fun with my good friends at work! Thanks so much anyway--
Thank you Nature and Anna
It's nice that others can sympathize with me. I just don't know what it is. One time years and years ago I told him I was feeling depressed and wanted to talk with a counselor. Boy did we have a blow out. He told me I should be able to talk to him about anything and I told him I can't. I told him he judges me and no matter what I feel or think he comes back with "you need to look at things the way I do". He's done that ever since we got married. When I wanted children and he didn't I was supposed to look at things the way he did. When I wanted to see my family but he didn't want me to travel because flying was not safe I was suppose to look at things the way he does. Once I told him you need to look at this the way I do and he said to me "no, because your wrong". I've heard how wrong I am for 25 years now that I just keep my feelings and opinions to myself. Once I accidentally broke a leaf off of one of his plants and he yelled at me for about 2 or 3 hours and I felt like a child with him saying "do you have anything to say for yourself". Then I got the same lecture for 2 hours my dad would give me growing up, and him saying I need to look at this the way he does (me destroying his plants and how would I feel if he destroyed something of mine). Oh hears a good one that will give you a laugh.... we were talking about how bad the crime is where we live. I told him that they should allow citizens from each section of the town pull a neighborhood watch and drive around and have the authority to arrest individuals committing crimes. He looked at me like I was nuts and said 'how, how, how do you think they would do that, they don't have enough money, etc, etc. Then he told me the way to solve it would be to evacuate everyone out of the city, shut down all the roads and make the town a ghost town (mind you this is a town of over 50K people with businesses, restaurants, and stores throught). HA HA...I felt like saying...gee your right honey, I should look at things the way you do.
I guess the weirdest thing though is that I've never had dreams with my my DH in my dreams. Maybe in the beginning I had a dream or two, but that was maybe 20 years ago. Also I know a lot of people can see themselves older and with their spouses, but I have never ever pictured us old together. I don't know what it is but it's like when I look into my future I can see myself with gray hair and being with my family and friends, but he's just not there.
Sometimes I read people's messages and am a little envious and would like to be in a relationship like some are, but I cannot imagine what that would be like. But on the otherhand, I am a very independent person, very sure of myself, and the thought of being alone does not bother me at all. I always think that being alone does not necessarily mean being lonely.
Anyway...just wanted to say thanks for your kind words.
fox news is saying that anna is dead. i think it's very sad too. nm
n
I have done a lot of research on Anna in the past and of course now sm
since her death. Sorry, but none of your claims are true, according to my facts. No offense against you.
First, the son of the billionaire died on June 20 of last year after a short battle with an infection. So there goes the claims that the billionaire's did that.
Second. Anna is not married to Howard K. Stern, her attorney. They had a committment ceremony which both the Bahamas and the US do not recognize. UNLESS she has a will, which at this point we do not know, Howard isn't entitled to anything, BUT Daniel Lynn, her daughter, is. So, to me, I don't think he did it. I do, however, think he contributed to Daniel's death since there are reports that he immediately dumped pills down the toilet in her hospital room in the Bahamas once he realized Daniel was dead. Many reports on this one. He gave Daniel Vicodin (which is also what Anna was claimed to be addicted to), and Daniel was also on 2 other antidepressants he began taking a few months prior.
As far as Larry Birkhead, the previous boyfriend, according to his website dated Feb. 8, Anna was his soul mate. He was waiting for her to come back to him and leave Howard so they could raise their baby together. I know, weird. He just sent her a box with a photo album and clothes for the baby with a picture of both of them when they were together. It is said that he has been unconsolable since hearing of her death. I feel for him. That is his child, if you ask me. It is. Doesn't even look like Howard, who is Jewish. I am part Jewish. Very dark skin, dark hair. The baby is very, very fair skinned, almost red hair, light eyes. Most definitely not Howard's in my honest opinion.
Third, or fourth point. And I promise, I'll be done after this. Anna died of pure heartbreak, drug overdose, and a combination of the flu/pneumonia. Sources say she has never been the same since Sep. 10 when her son died. They said, she just lost her spark. I can't imagine. I definitely believe, after coming to my own conclusions, that Anna died of unintentional suicide.
Okay, I'm off my soapbox now! LOL
Anna Nicole update.....3:30 pm EST
*no evidence of a crime occurring, no evidence of illegal drugs, only rx drugs, but we are not revealing whose names were on those bottles. Investigation remains open until all tests return, but no evidence of a crime occurred. No trauma found except a minor bruise from the bed a few days ago....no physical injuries found on her, autopsy is now complete. No determination in cause of death but extensive review of medical records and tests ongoing. They are still collecting information, lab data, etc., and will take somewhere between 3 and 5 weeks.*

Anna Nicole - an old friend
I met Anna Nicole years ago in Texas when we knew her as Nicki before playboy and before her millionaire.
Nicki was smart and could read people very well. She came from a rough upbringing and if you ever heard her tell stories of her childhood you would understand the anger she showed on camera. Her mother was a very unpleasant person and was only interested in the almighty dollar not her daughter or grandson unless Nicki had money for her. I hope that Nicki's mom doesnt get the baby but I am not sure any of the other choices would be better. I just pray that the courts are smart enough to appoint the baby a good lawyer and guardian to oversee her money and make sure that it lasts until she is old enough to control it.
DNA
The baby for all intense purposes is a Bahamian citizen. I think she would qualify for dual citizenship but am not sure. But as long as she stays in the bahamas the US cannot make them do anything although the bahamian court could. I am sure that that is why Nicki gave birth there and why she had not brought the baby with her when she returned to the US. For some reason she did not want the baby to be tested probably because the photog isn't the father and didnt want to have to go through the whole who is my baby's daddy thing. you notice none of these other "fathers" came forward until there was a chance they would control her fortune.
On a final note Nicki may have been a lot of things in her life but ignorant was not one of them.
Anna Nichole is still being taken advantage of, even in
death with her supposedly beloved, yeh right, Howard Stern who now I hear has sold the rights for her funeral to Entertainment Tonight for 3+ million. Why am I not shocked by this? Hearing complaints from other news services unable to get any kind of story at all, all involved - her mother, her former boyfriend Larry and her baby daddy (supposedly) Howard others think are being paid $$$ not to talk but exclusively to ET. Heard Fox news just say they do not pay for stories, well I guess some are not that honorable.
Yep and no one else is after poor Anna Nicole's
tee heee
father of anna nicole
This just in Larry is the father.
he''s in charge is what it means since Anna is dead.....
WHAT IS A GUARDIAN AD LITEM?
A guardian ad litem is an individual appointed by probate court before or during a proceeding. Responsibilities may include prosecuting an action on behalf of an individual, providing information to a respondent, conducting an investigation, and making a report and recommendation to the court.

Anna Nicole's burial on hold maybe
Anna Nicole's mother is trying to stop her daughter from being buried right now. Also the father of Daniel is trying to have his son's body exhumed. This is really sickening. Let her REST IN PEACE already.
Didn't you see the Anna Nicole interview
on ET? She was beaten and abused by her mother from the sound of it. Being a cop makes no difference, if you have anger problems they can even be worse with stressful job like that. She HATED her mother and during the interview was spitting fire when she was talking about her. She vowed never to let her mother go near her baby daughter Danielynn. A mother is much more than just giving birth.
Somebody explain this Anna Nicole's mother doing what I have just seen
At the funeral her mother spread dirt/concrete whatever over her daughter's grave, looked like she was pulling it from the bed of a truck but then she walked on the grave?? What in the world was that all about? Anyone have any other information on that - I missed the whole story. Thanks.
And I think he brain-washed Anna, got her to turn
against her mother, got her to go to the Bahamas, knowing good and well he was not the father- if he were do you not think he would have DEMANDED a DNA some time ago?? So simple if you think about it. He did not give 1 at the end and last night when his family was on Entertainment Tonight, I could tell by the way they were talking was not his, telling how they hated for the kid to be taken away- it is NOT his kid. He was the same as kidnapping the child, otherwise like I said the DNA would have been done at the beginning. Use your senses, ok?
Stern had SOMETHING to do with Daniel and Anna's death. That's what I
believe anyway. I also don't think he loved that baby. He loved that baby's MONEY. I think Larry loved Anna and loves his daughter and I think he deserves the money to raise his daughter on, put her through college, etc. Stern got what he deserved. What a creep.
I agree, just tell them to stop all that Anna Nicole Smith
!!!
Anna Nichole's mother did not just put dirt or whatever on the grave, she
actually WALKED over the top of the grave. I was shocked because where I live so disrespectful, had never ever seen this done before. I am southern and her mother also lives in the south. Just not done in my neck of the woods. Even after burial, I always try to go around marked graves, never treading on them if I can at all keep from doing so.
makes me thing Anna Nicole wasn't so stupid after all. NM
.
One of Vergie's (Anna Nicole's mother) attorneys passed out. He said he is a diabetic. nm
/
Judge just said Anna Nichole baby daughter has remains and will be left up
to what the babys lawyer wants. Stern does not win!!
**Anna Nicole Smith** collapses, unresponsive at Hard Rock Hotel in FL.
