Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Connecticut
Deceased Beneficiary
Our mother passed away two years ago. Our father passed away two months ago. The ''1964'' will states that assets are to be divided equally among the six siblings. Our sister passed away before both parents, but the will was never changed. Are her two children automatically entitled to her share of the small estate?

Depends on what the will says. If to my children or their issue (or some such language), then her kids share. If not, not.
