Hawaii
Trust formed under California law.
Quote: Upon the death of the Settlor, Timothy XXXXXXX, the Trustee, after making payments provided in Article Five, shall retain One-Hundred percent (100%) of the Trust Estate in trust for the benefit of John XXXXXXX, father of the Settlor and Virginia XXXXXXX, mother of the Settlor or the survivor of them.
1. My parents are divorced, but my revocable living trust will be set up to provide for them with 100% of the trust assets after my death. Does "or the survivor of them" mean their new husband or wife, or does it mean my mom & dad's other children? Should I remove the term "or the survivor of them" if I ONLY want trust assets to pass to my parents, and not to their new spouses?
THANK YOU in advance!!
