If Your Honor please,this ~oo is an ,estate
wherein there was a Will;although it's a small one,it has some
complications.that I will try to make the Court aware of.The
decedent's beneficiaries were his son,who ewas the devisee of
a specific piece of real estate in the Borough of Donora,jh,is two
daughters and another son who had predeceased him leaving two
children'w ho are minors to survive him.Basically,his s on is

entitled to the piece of real es tate;the two living daughters are
entitled to a third of the residue;and his two grandchildren by the
deceased son are entitled to a sixth each.The son who received
the real estate is a res ident of the State of New York and he and
his wife joined with the executor in the sale of that real estate
which is reflected in the account and in the propos ed distribution.
All of the other beneficiaries are !residents of Czechoslovakia,
as is the decedent's widow.In his will the decedent stated tha t
the widow abandoned him some 20 years ago.and went back to
Czechoslovakia.An attorney named David Cobb from Washingtor,
D.C.had been in communication with me and provided a Power
of Attorney executed by the beneficiaries in Czechoslovakia and
also executed by the widow.And he was to represent all of these
people in this es tate.The Power of Attorney is ineluded with the
papers Th'am filing:;today,as is a translation of that Power of
Attorney.
Also,I am filing a letter from this Attorney Copb
which indicates that the widow does not elect to take against the
Will and I believe can be considered to indicat e that she doesnIt
want to ~ontest the averment of desertion,which is contained in
the Will.
THE COURT:
MR.HIRSCH:
Well,that's what the attorney says in his letter.
Well,he does have a Power of Attorney signed
by her,executed by the cWidow.
THE COURT:Well,it's a quest ion of how far that Power of
3
Attorney would go.
MR.IDRSCH:I imagine the Court will have to examine it.No"
also,there is a claim against the estate by the DeRienzo Funeral
Home in ttJe amount of $285.00,which is a balance on a funeral
bill totalling $1,080.00.Now the funeral bill was incurred
immediately after the decedent's death.At that time,I,who had c
copy of the decedent's will in ;,my safe deposit box,was unaware
the decedent had died.I think I was out of town and Letters of
Administration were taken ou t by Mr.DeRienzo and he buried
the decedent before I even became aware that the decedent had
passed away.The amount of,the total amount of the funeral bill,
including the vault and cemetery charges,came to $1,080.00.
I paid the director $540.00 out of the es tate monies.Social
Security paid him $255.00.The estate does not deny that the
usual charge for the services rendered is $1,080'.)00.However,
we would like the Court to include it in the Decree of Distribution
unless the Court objects to it for some other reason than the
correct valuation.
Your Honor,we still have problems.I neglectE d
to state that Attorney Cobb has provided me with an appearance 0[1
behalf of the residuary legatees.And I request that becaus e of
the smallness of the amount to be distributed that I be directed to
make the distribution to him,with directions that he pay the amo nt
\

due directly to the people entitled.
THE COURT:And file proper receipts therefor.
MR.illRSCH:That would be up to whatever the Court ordered;n the
Audit Pet ition I cite Syslik Estate,20 Fiduciary Reports,617,

CERTIFIED RETURNED RECEIPT REQUESTED
Arnold W.Hirsch,Esquire
Box 341
Donora,Pennsylvania 15033
Re:Estate of Stefan Kurnava
Dear Mr.Hirsch:
I am some what surprised to receive in todayT s mail from
Dr.Ruziak at Bratislava the enclosed power of attorney.I
had not heard from Dr.Ruziak since my report to him made by
my letter of May 26 following my receipt of your letter of
May 13.
Ordinarily,I require that powers of attorney in estates
pending in Pennsylvania be signed in the presence of the U.S.
Consul at Prague so that the Consul may attach his certificate
of acknowledgment of execution of an instrument to the power
covering the signature of the heirs.This was not done in this
case,and probably may be explained by the advice contained in
my letter of May 26,'which indicated that the shares,if any,
available for distribution under the fourtlrarticle of the
decedent's Will would be extremely small.The decedentTs two
daughters,Pavulina and Sidonia,the two children of the dece-
dent's son,"Arlton,are all residents of ~Heslovakia,and
the trip to Prague to sign a power in the presence of the Consul
might more than exhaust any benefit they may obtain from the
estate.In the circumstances,I hope the enclosed power will be
sufficient•
.You will note that the power has been signed by the decedentTs
widow,as well as by his two daughters,and by the mother of the
two grandchildren.~y my letter of May 26,I advised Dr.Ruziak
that the widow might assert a claim apart from the Will.Dr.
Ruziak has not responded to that advice and I shall assume from
his silence that the widow does not elect to take against the
Will.
,
..'~'.
Arnold W.Hirsch,E~quire

,,
If I can be of Iany assistance to you in closing this estate,
kindly advise me.+have not made any request~for documents to
establish the relationships of the legatees to the decedent nor
have I requested any further identifying documentation.If you
require either,let 'me know.Best wishes.
