No real property (if her pending house sale goes through). Just cash, some small life insurance policies.

Things passed from one spouse to the other with whomever passes first, then division among the four
daughters when other one passes.

Mom just won't eat enough; is down to 105 lbs on a 6 ft frame; doctor said either she gains weight now or has less than 4 months left. Dad won't last long without her. She is now his purpose in life; they've been married 60 years this Labor Day if they make it that long, and retired together 25 years. For the last several years, the greatest majority of Dad's time has been occupied with taking care of Mom, who has been in a wheelchair for a long time; totally confined to it the last two years. Dad is a person who was always a workaholic and needs a purpose in life. Without Mom, he's going to fade fast.

On Edit: both my parents are currently alive, both are moving.
