The program is sponsored by the Coryell County Extension Program Council. A registration fee of $5.00 be per person, payable at the door, will charged for and will include refreshments." Speaker will be Dr. Wayne A.

Hayenga, professor and Extension Specialist with the Texas Agricultural Extension Service. Dr. Hayenga is an Agricultural Economist and a Texas licensed Attorney. He works extensively with farmers, ranchers, and agribusiness firms in financial, business, and tax planning. "Will writing is difficult for many people," says Dr.

Hayenga. One of the most difficult parts is to pick out the people who will do things for your family. There are three main actors to be selected. They are the Executor, the Trustee, and the Guardian if a person has minor children. The Executor, also called the personal representative, takes charge of a deceased person's estate immediately after death.

He needs to find the will, offer is for probate, and carries out the duties cited in the will and required by law. "Simplified, the duties are to collect all the decedent's property, file the needed reports with the proper authorities, and distribute the property to the heirs after all claims and taxes are paid." What is the Hardest job? "Probably collecting the decedent's property," says Hayenga. "How does the Executor know when he has found all of the property? He really doesn't, he just hopes he does." The other duties, filing reports and distributing the property a are more administrative acts. Even if they are burdensome tasks, an Executor can hire a competent attorney accountant to assist him. Dr.

Hayenga specializes in estate planning, taxes, and administration. A most sought after speaker, he has taught courses of this type for the Texas CPA's and other professional organizations for the past several years.
