I want to apologize up front for this off topic rant so please do not take offense at any of my remarks. After 14 months I will hopefully, finally settle my late father's estate on Tuesday, May 6th. His widow is entitled to half the interest of all interest paid on deposits, half interest in all calves born and sold during the marriage, half interest in timber sales of appreciated timber, and what ever else she stole from him while he was alive. The last words my father spoke to me before he died were "Whatever you do, don't you let them take the farm away from you. They will take that farm away from you and you will loose all the hard work and money that you've put into it." One H*ll of a way for a man to go out of this world. Her son, a convicted drug dealer recently released from prison, is "handling" her claim against my father's estate. She and her son let me know exactly what she was entitled to within 15 minutes of my father"s death right there at his death bed. The day of his funeral the first words out of his mouth were "Are you going to probate the will?" The only mistake they have made so far is that they went to the wrong bank on the day after my father died. She took no less than $2,000 cash of my father's money and deposited to her personal checking account. So far my attorney has received 3 different stories from them on where the $2,000 came from. The only personal belonging of my father's she has given me was his empty wallet. Who says that crime doesn't pay. Regardless of the outcome Tuesday, I will be glad to finally wash my hands of these sorry people. I tell folks that ask about the situation that some things are best left unsaid. Again I want to apologize for this off topic rant. Two words of advice for the farmer who wants to take a wife: PRENUPTIAL AGREEMENT.
