<p>[QUOTE="Bev aka thelmasstuff, post: 10271357, member: 23"]I know his father grew up in Newton, MA and they lived there until Bill was 18 when they moved to Cape Cod. His parents were older when they had him. He had an older half brother who married, divorced and had no children. He had a black widow girlfriend so for a couple of years after his father died they moved in with Bill. They went to the nursing home and got his mother to put his brother in her will even though the house was Bill's from his father. The girlfriend took anything of value that wasn't nailed down. Family silver, antiques. Even though we were court appointed guardians, it wasn't until his brother died that we could evict her from the house. She had gotten Bill to cash in his Money Market account that his grandmother left him. His brother had made her his beneficiary so she got half the money from the house sale. The good news is Bill's lawyer (pro bono because he also was a family friend) got the court to make her pay Bill back the money she stole from him so he could buy his condo. She was extremely bitter but moved on to another poor unfortunate soul who had just inherited a family business. When she extracted all his money she moved back to NH. You all needed to hear this crazy story! Sorry for getting carried away.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
