Valmai Roche left the same amount to her ex-husband, John Roche, a former property developer who was Adelaide City Council Lord Mayor from 1975-77. Two of Ms Roche's daughters say their mother was "delusional" and they are challenging her will in the South Australian Supreme Court, The Advertiser reports. Before her death, Ms Roche's mother, Dorothy Maud Haber, was being cared for in a nursing home. The documents do not say how or when she died. Ms Roche, who died last year aged 81, left "30 pieces of silver of the lowest denomination of currency" - or 30 five cent pieces - claiming it was "blood money due to Judas" to each of her daughters. The daughters - Deborah Hamilton, Fiona Roche and Shauna Roche - were also left equal shares in their mother's jewellery, on condition they read and correctly answered questions relating to her personal diaries from January, 1974, until the date of her will, which was signed in October 1981. The will left the remainder of her estate to the Knights of the Southern Cross - a Catholic charity for men. Ms Roche also "specifically excludes" her children and former husband "from any further benefits" because her daughters "have been adequately provided for . . . and because of their estrangement" during her later years. Mr Roche was excluded from further benefit due to the "irretrievable breakdown" of the couple's marriage, which ended in divorce about November 1983. Ms Roche made only one addition to her will. In 1987, she left a French Empire style desk to daughter Fiona. Fiona Roche now heads the family's Roche Group of companies - a family empire that regularly appears in the BRW Rich 200 list. Documents before the court do not provide a formal valuation of Ms Roche's estate, but it is estimated at $3.5 million. Ms Hamilton alleges her mother held "fixed, false and incorrigible views". Ms Hamilton alleges her mother's "delusions" rendered her incapable of "making a reasonable and proper disposition of her estate", making her will invalid. The matter returns to court next month.[/release] She sounds kind of batty, but goddamn that's funny.
That's actually really funny.
lol I know three persons who would conspire for real, now.
Religion does that to a person. :colbert:
Great, she gave the money to catholics, pherhaps they can wipe their ass with it... [editline]05:54PM[/editline] She should have done the world a favour and turned her mansion into a stripclub who made money for UNICEF!
Wills are horrible things... it turns people into such cunts. When my grandfather died about 6 years ago my step gran "lost" his will, got ALL his lfie savings (fucking shitloads... like really, he'd been svaing for 60 years) and then fucked off, bought a £600,000 house, a porche, remarried and now her new husbands 2 kids are gonna get it all. My mother (it was her dad who died) was his only child, and they had such a close relationship... she got nothing.
Old rich people always do this, personally I think it's funny.
Cool, all the priests can go on a roadtrip to Thailand and get some hot boy-love.
If I was rich I wouldn't leave my kids a shitload of money. I think they should have to earn their shit just like I had mine.
