In a story only tangentially related to estate planning, Victoria Salt died when she was 2 days old. Her father, George, visited her grave in Manchester, England semi-annually since 1988. On a recent visit, he learned that
her grave was actually in a different part of the cemetery because the marker had been in the wrong place. He said he was gobsmacked by this revelation.
Three points of no significance:
1. This is sad for Mr. Salt who showed incredible love for his daughter.
2. Americans should adopt gobsmacked as part of the vernacular.
3. The grave surrounded by squirrels is Veruca Salt’s.
