Burnt it? How dare they! That's going against a deceased person's wishes! For shame. No disrespect to your grandpa intended, but I feel almost superstitious about that stuff. As executor of my late mother's will, there were things I didn't agree with, but in the end they were her wishes and not mine.

You're not the only one. Without wanting to reveal too many details, a will was Not Followed when the house came to be sold and the proceeds divided. Things that have happened in the families that were a party to it or colluded were... not good.
