They expect to complete the deal in the next two months. Steven will have to continue working for the company for at least 6 months to a year after the sale, and Patty will begin to make the arrangements for them to sell their house and buy a ranch in the West. Only Samantha will move with them, but Samantha is not happy about leaving her friends. Steven has promised her that she can have her own horse when they move. Samantha is still not sure that she will like the new life and has been throwing some fits lately. The other two children will not move to the ranch. The K. family son Kyle has been living for a year with Susan Marshall, a woman he fell in love with on a rafting trip. She is 32 years of age and has a 4-year-old child. He has been asking about what he should do to provide for them in the event something happened to him. The K. Family would like a recommendation to help Kyle so he can do something to provide for them while keeping his options open for the future. Kyle has made no plans as yet to be married to Susan. Stephen’s mother Jane, is 82, and lives in a large ranch style house in Florida. Her house is worth approximately $250,000. She has become less able to take care of her home and of herself and wants to move into an assisted living community. Jane has begun to show some signs of dementia, and Stephen would like to help her with her plans and is hoping she will find an assisted living community near his home. She receives Social Security checks, pension benefits, and income from investments set up by Steven’s father. The investments are worth over $300,000. In addition, Jane has a life insurance policy insuring her life with a face value of $150,000. Her other assets total approximately $150,000.

Patty would like to find a ranch for the K’s to buy near Carmen so Patty can help her mother as she gets older. Carmen’s husband established a trust at his death two years ago to which he bequeathed investments worth $1 million. The value of the trust has declined to $800,000 currently. Under the trust, Carmen is to be paid all of the income annually, and she has a 5 & 5 power of invasion. Carmen has never exercised the 5 & 5 power and has been able to live off of the annual income with her other resources. The assets in the trust will pass to Patty when Carmen dies. If Patty is not alive, the assets pass to her children by representation. GOALS AND OBJECTIVES: 1.
