Gerald Nizbit was furious when his lawyer mistakenly sent him his mother’s will instead of her. He immediately called his lawyer, followed by Margaret Pratt, and then his mother, Edith. He demanded she pack her bags and be ready to leave by 4 p.m.
Edith, who had always been close to Gerald, was devastated when she realized her decision to leave her estate to her older children instead of him had upset him. She quickly packed and waited anxiously. When Gerald arrived, he insisted she get in the car, saying everything was arranged.
As they drove, Edith tried to explain, but Gerald was silent. They arrived at a private airport where a jet was waiting. Gerald explained that while he understood her reasons for the will, the real treasure for him was the sentimental items she had left him, not money. He reassured her that he wasn’t kicking her out but taking her on a two-week trip to Tahiti to help her arthritis and spend time together.
