Yes, thank you to all that responded! It's so heartbreaking many of the things we've all been through.
Jimbomaybe: thanks so much. This is the answer I was hoping for. My sib just handed me the bill and "handled the estate". Which was small.
But dads' estate will be much larger. How do I go about making sure she handled it right by Dad? I don't want a text again about "how much I owe her" for handling of estate.
I need a lawyer this time with this amount... and not sure where to begin.
Thanks all for your reflections on how you all went through your own journeys.
