Laughing Heir

Nothing funny about it, someone just died here. Let’s call him Rupert. Even worse, Rupert didn’t leave a will explaining who gets what from his estate. Since Rupert never married or had children and the orphanage where he grew up lost all records about his family lineage during a fire years ago, finding Rupert’s next of kin is difficult.

Luckily for her, Gladys was the only person listed in a family photo album that the executor of Rupert’s estate found buried in his attic. Even though they hadn’t spoken in more than 40 years, Gladys is laughing all the way to the bank as the sole heir of Rupert’s estate, including an antique collection of whoopie cushions, which is worth millions of dollars.
