Re: wills
If this holographic (hand-written) Will is valid (since it names no takers there may be a question of validity, as well as whether the appropriate state law recognizes holographic wills, it would appear that the intestacy (dying without a Will) laws will determine the takers, based upon closest living family relationship.
