Anne Elchuk died in 2020 and left equal shares of her $ 77,000 estate to 11 nieces and nephews, and a friend.

The will, written in 2017 , stated she was making no provision for Victor Elchuk , 81 , because “he is already cared for in his group home with sufficient income and trust money, and I do not want to risk his current benefits” B.C. public trustee is fighting the will of a woman who purposely left nothing to her elderly son, who lives with mental and physical disabilities.
