Re: executor

You need to supply more information re the retirement plan. If there was a beneficiary designation leaving the retirement plan to her, then you are out of luck. However, if the retirement plan was void of a beneficiary designee or was payable to his estate, then the disposition would be determinded according to the will, if there is such. You need to contact an attorney in the place where you live.
