What is the name of your state? Texas
Another issue has arisen. Step-dad is now saying that her funeral expenses will have to be paid by her estate. She died 3 years ago. He paid for her funeral with a life insurance policy that he had taken out which was only 15,000 her funeral was 14,000. My husband did not make any decisions regarding her funeral. Honestly, we would have tried to do things a little cheaper. We would have used our church which would have been free and so forth instead of the chapel in the funeral home. Not that any of that probably matters. We are a community property state. Let's just say he made 28 thousand while married to her so her estate would be entitled to half. Wouldn't that just cancel out the funeral expenses?
