Re: Estate of James E. Zimmerman
Dear Sir or Madam:
Enclosed for filing are the Pennsylvania Inheritance Tax Returns for the
Estate of James E. Zimmerman, deceased. Also enclosed is our firm's check in the
amount of $15.00 representing the filing fee for the same. Please note, an estate
administration has not been filed for Mr. Zimmerman as all of his assets, located in
Pennsylvania, were held in the Zimmerman Family Trust. Further, at Mr.
Zimmerman's death, he was a resident of Florida.
Please time-stamp the extra copy of the Inheritance Tax Return, and return
it to our office in the self-addressed stamped envelope provided.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. If you should have any questions,
please do not hesitate to contact me.

income or principal in any of the following ways: (1) to the beneficiary directly, (2) to the legally
appointed guardian or conservator of the beneficiary, (3) to a custodian for the beneficiary under Florida
law governing transfer of property to minors, (4) for the benefit of the beneficiary, or (5) to an adult
relative or friend in reimbursement for amounts property advanced for the benefit of the beneficiary.
