Re: old will
It is never a bad idea to update one's will periodically, especially if there are major life changes. If there are gifts made in the will and the parties listed have predeceased the will maker, those gifts would fail, but how the property would then be distributed (or redistributed) can only be told upon a reading of the will itself. -GJR
