THANKS FOR CALLING.

BYE.

WHAT'S GOING ON?

YOUR GRANDFATHER, SAM.

HE HAD AN ACCIDENT AND DIED.

WHAT?

WERE YOU ALL CLOSE WITH SAM?

- WE WERE BUT WE LOST TOUCH THE LAST FEW YEARS.

I BARELY KNEW HIM.

- FOR A MAN WHO HAS TOUCHED SO MANY LIVES,

HIS PRIVATE LIFE SEEMS OF LATELY IS PROBABLY THE

REASON WHY FEW PEOPLE WERE AT THE FUNERAL.

BUT I'M GLAD YOU THREE WERE ABLE TO MAKE IT.

A PORTION OF THE MONEY THAT IS LEFT

TRANSFER TO THE THREE OF YOU.

THERE ARE SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS WITH PART "A"

OF THE WILL TO HANDLE HIS MONEY AND PROPERTY AND ESTATE.

PART "A"?

- IT SAYS PART "B" WILL NOT BE GIVEN AND WILL BE TURNED

OVER TO THE DESIGNATED CHARITY UNLESS INSTRUCTIONS

OF PART "A" ARE FULFILLED.

INSTRUCTIONS?

WHEN YOU FIRST CAME TO ME,
