Hi, Karen.

Bear with me as I try to round up all the monies owed to mother by her daughter, my sister, Liz King Jones and/or father.

Sister has almost always had an on-going loan.  Last was approx $35,000 from 2002/03.  This was to buy the Lexus wagon she is now driving.  This might have included money still owed from previous loan for husband Woody's Toyota truck. Her monthly payments were $539, per 12/03/07 depo.

April 14, 2007 she e-mailed that she still owed approx $7,000 and had one year left to pay.  Same e-mail, she said daughter Angie owed $4,500. Based on check copies supplied by Angie, she still owes $7,600.  I think sister also understated what's due. Question is, how much does she really owe.

Parents had two joint checking accounts when I arrived here in June, 2007.
From June until they were closed - Oct., approx end of year - I never saw a payment given to parents or deposited into either account.

In the 12/03/07 depo she said she bought a van for $10,000 (I've also heard $11,000) in Oct. with a home equity loan and is paying herself back with the $539 per month.  This van was to be used to drive parents around.  This purchase was not discussed with me - mother's conservator and co-guardian - and I certainly would not have agreed to it. Mother's dr ordered that she was not to be taken out of the house without his permission. If father authorized it, he can pay for it.  Sister and husband are on title.

New subject:  rent.  A small house on the property is rented at $250 per month.  Father/sister receives this 1st of each month.  I think mother is entitled to half, starting with my conservatorship 7/07.

New subject: digital right of way installed on property.  Father/sister received $1,000 or more since 7/07.  Mother is entitled to half.

New subject: cargo trailer.  Sister took this to Ohio to sell.  Brother Wayne thinks it is worth $500/600.  Where's mother's share?

New subject:  safe deposit box.  Sister emptied this out and closed it out.  What was in it?  Anything of value? Bonds?  Mother has bought bonds in the past. We have a right to know.

New subject:  2006 and 2007 income tax returns.  Sister took it upon herself to file these returns.  Wayne and I have asked for but not received copies of 2006 tax return. Lyndon Livesay, CPA, Pennington Gap, filed parents' taxes for 20+ years.  I took mother's 2007 paperwork to Livesay's office, with word to sister that I did not - did not - want her to file mother's 2007 taxes.  Apparently, however, she did anyway. Who signed for mother???  We need to see what she did.

Added to the money taken directly from Lee Bank & New People's Bank, the money received from the insurance co but not paid to the caregivers, the money from lumber, the money owed by daughter Angie, etc., I think this might be it.

I have about 2 lbs of bank records that were subpoenaed by Sturgill & Kennedy. Want them?  I can supply copies of e-mails referenced, depo's, etc.  Let me know what you need.

Thanks.

8.30.08 Health and Human Services

In elizabeth's continued effort to get Mother's guardianship, this time C. Adam Kinser, elizabeth, Tammy Williams and Joyce Williams show up in court to confirm that Mother and Daddy, both with progressive diseases have deterioration over the last year and half, AND it was caused by our lack of care with Mother. This is the same place Dr. Scott Litton, Mother's doctor, said, "if I ever get sick, I'm coming here".

Judge Quillen sent Tammy and Joyce Williams out of the room when it was quickly determined Mother wasn't neglected.That just extended Mother's life.

Jeff,

Three extremely obese women from family svcs showed up at my apartment, approx 2:30 p.m. yesterday.  There had been no prev calls, anything.

Only one of them talked.  She only had two questions;  one re daddy hitting and knocking down Charlsie last year, and the other re my refusal to let Eliz take mother joy-riding to her death in that stupid van that dad wrecked.

They seemed shocked re other info I was only too happy to give them...my father leaving everything to Eliz in his new will, taking of the insurance money, etc. I told them that as far as I knew, the judge knew nothing about any of this as she refused to hear our case and decided the whole thing in the back room with our lawyers.  This is unbelievable to them. I told them I could give them copies of Eliz statements in her deposition - and I had these copies at the ready -  30 seconds away - but they didn't want to get that involved.

They said (judge) Tammi wanted their report Tuesday A.M.

No one has contacted Wayne re anything so he is back in Georgia.

Jeff,

On behalf of mother's interest, I want to sue Elizabeth for the unsecured loans made by mom & dad to Eliz/husband/daughter.  The total is about $55,000.  What has been repaid, when, is - at best - unclear.  Earlier this year, in an e-mail to me, she admitted to owing approx $11,000.  I have seen no evidence that she has paid anything since.  In fact, during her deposition she stated that she had been using the payment amount to pay for the newly purchased & wrecked van that is in her/husband's name.

As a point of interest, Elizabeth did not include any accounts receivable (debts owed) in the petition for mother's conserv/guardianship.

Is this something Will should handle?  Wayne has an appt this Thursday.  I could tag along, or make my own appointment.

Let me know.  Thanks.

I know they gave me 4K in 1982 in the fall.  I assume they also gave you two money because that's what they always did.

They gave each of the grandkids 4K in 1986, the year Angie graduated from high school.
Mom and Dad gave us at least 25K a piece, maybe 30K. The first time was about 1992.  Woody and I borrowed 10K when we moved to W. Alex and then they decided to give each of you 10K and called our debt off.  At that time, Gail had some "work done", and this may have been the same 10K that paid for your lot Wayne.  I know that when Gail, Mom and I were in New York in May of 1991 the purchase of the lot was discussed.  They bought it and deeded it in there name and then later on your name.  At that time, they didn't want to give you money because you were in the midst of a divorce from Andy. 
In about 1997 they gave each of us more money.  At that time, we owed them 5K on Woody's 1995 Astro van and they forgave that debt.  I think they gave us a total of 10K at that time because I gave Angie 1K to help her out with expenses at home while she was going to school and she graduated in 1998.  I also think this was the same money that got there in the nick of time to help with Gails taxes.
I also think there was another 10K since then, but my memory ain't what it used to be.
I'll have to check my bank records for that. 
I realize the income has not been increasing, but I also know at one time Mom had at least 189K at Lee bank.  That was when she put me on those records the first time.

Before you two work yourself into a heart attack, think about the following and decide how much you think is "missing".
We have a 22K, interest payment loan for partial purchase on one of the condos. I seem to remember Adam receiving 4K for college, and me receiving, I believe a total of 20K in 2 installments, 10K of it being used for this lot and another 10K as a gift. That's 46K.
I assume both of you have received like gifts or existing loans.
All their major purchases have been made with cash. That is house, car, motor home (18K), small motor home (15K), little house, etc.
While Daddy's memory is suspect, Mother's is pretty good, missing the part that formulates words, which is not the same. Having a few hundred dollars laying around in travelers checks is not a big deal. That is the way they paid for their trips.
I will stop at the CPA's today and see what information they have. Their tax return will list any interest income from anything other than Lee Bank and FNB. Gail, passive income is what the name indicates, in that they have no active involvement to create the income, which is different that interest or dividends income which must be reported. They have primarily live in two places for 60 yrs, so it's pretty unlikely that interest statements haven't made it here.
I will let both of you know after I look at the tax return. With the exception of digging up the farm with a shovel, let me know if you have a new idea and I will either get the information or find a name and number for you to talk to.
My initial cut is what you see is what you get. They elected to share there savings with us during those years they felt we needed it. It can't be had both ways.
