Tаylоr Tucker, а widоwer, executed а valid will that left all his prоperty to his siblings (Richard and Susan) and his adult children (Agatha, Bernice, and Claudia) in equal shares. After a family argument over a burnt Thanksgiving turkey, however, Tucker threw the will out of the kitchen window in front of his family and said "I'm going to draft a new will that leaves all my money to the International Children's Fund." Tucker died a year later, but no new will was ever found. However, Tucker’s attorney has kept a photocopy of the original will on file, and the attorney never heard anything about the family argument or about Tucker's plan to draft a new will. How should Tucker's estate be divided?
