question is above..
Background Infos..
my father passed away in February. We had been estranged a few years. This was his choice ( my dad has many issues, alcohol personality disorder etc..).. After his passing I had heard from other Family members he had been meaning to call me the past few months. He had cancer. I went back home for the church Services and burial. All was actually civil with his wife (I had also not spoken to her in about 3 years).. Dealing with her is like Walking on egg Shells. Very difficult. Especially now that she is mourning.
What has been bothering me lately is that she had yet to contact me regarding any of his items or will. I do not want Money she can have the house and all that. what just gets me is that as his only child ( yes were estranged, but I've known him 52 years! I have no part in his personal belongings etc....I know he has Pictures of me and other items that are from "his previous life" with my mom.... I feel like I Need to address this stuff..
I am just scared to Approach his wife,, she is a real Drama queen and can get ballistic.. I just feel in These cases, children should be involved. I would do that with my Kids... Now I understand the whole estranged Thing throws a pickle, but my Uncle told me to ask about the will. For me it's more the principle that as my Dad's only child I should have a right in dealing with his estate.. Now if he wrote in his will specifically He wants me not involved so be it.. But shouldnt his wife let me know officially?
