Thank you all for your kind thoughts. Peter, good idea on the trust. My mother did that and it might make sense for me too.

It's never fun. My Mom is almost 97, so it's only a matter of time. I recommend talking to an estate attorney once you have things settled. It is far better to have a trust set up than to go through probate, to say nothing of less expensive. There are also advantages if you need home health care in the future. A friend of mine had one heck of a time when her father passed away (an estate attorney who didn't set up his own....) and got everything put the way she wanted it. When she unexpectedly passed away 5 years ago everything went fine other than the fact that we all lost her.
